Belonging to a series of ex-CB&Q cars, these BNSF 3,200 cubic foot capacity cars with Barber Roller Bearing trucks were built by American Car & Foundry in the mid-1960s. Burlington Northern was formed through the mergers of Great Northern and Northern Pacific in 1970, and then merged with ATSF in 1995 to form BNSF. BNSF is one of the largest freight railroads in the country with over 32,000 miles of rail.
