024 00 310 40' standard box car Chicago, Burlington & Quincy 34236 (N Scale)

Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
Road Number CB&Q 34236

This 40' standard box car with single door and no roofwalk is painted green with white lettering. It was built in June 1945, serviced in August 1969, and runs on Bettendorf trucks. When the cars entered service as CB&Q #39675-40634, all were painted in the pre-merger Cascade Green paint scheme. The plan was to add the word NORTHERN below the BURLINGTON, but by the time the merger was consummated, the font had changed to a thinner style, so these cars never received the full merger name.
