New Haven Railroad former wooden 4400 series car now, in MOW work train service as # W-160, ca mid 1950's
New Haven Railroad former wooden 4400 series car now, in MOW work train service as # W-160, ca mid 1950's. These old steel frame wooden cars were painted red with white lettering, and found new life as work cars and B&B gang cars, etc. The cars have been modified to suit their new purpose, with the diaphragms removed, along with the vestibule doors also being removed. In reality this old wooden car appears to be in very good shape, considering its age at the time, plus it also appears to have been freshly painted.
The name of the photographer that captured this image on film is unknown. This photo came from the Internet.
