SP 50 ton, 50' Steel Box Cars
Photo from: Mt. Vernon Catalog (courtesy Ted Culotta)
The SP had a large fleet of steel box cars 50' nominal inside length with a nominal 50 ton capacity. These cars came from original classes of both A-50-xx and B-50-xx. The SP had initially considered box cars with double doors as Automobile box cars, thus the A super classes. However, in the late 1950's, all box cars started being classed as B super class regardless of door configuration. By contrast, the UP has never given up this practice and has A-70-xx, A-90-xx and A-110-xx class double door box cars.
