Title:
CB&Q XML-8 10211
Description:
CB&Q XML-8 10211 at Cicero, Illinois on an unknown day in January 1981, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The following description is from the book, CB&Q Color Guide To Freight And Passenger Equipment, by Michael J. Spoor, and although it applies to a later series of cars, the Official Railway Equipment Register (October 1971) gives this series of cars (10200-10214) the same dimensions as the series described in the book: "The Q returned to Pullman in 1965 for 55 more auto parts cars, #10215-10269, which were designated XML-8. These cars had 10' sliding doors, Evans DF2 belt rails, and Hydroframe 40 cushion gear. Most of these cars were assigned to various divisions of General Motors.". Some of the cars were assigned to Libby Owens Ford Glass Company in Ottawa, Illinois. At the time of this photo, this particular car carried placards indicating it contains glass. The diagonal stripe on the door indicates that Evans DF2 belt rails are installed. It is stencilled: New 7-65 Exceeds Plate C. These 15 cars in the CB&Q 10200-10214 series became BN #'s 355135-355149.
