WC 137822

These old boxcars had been parked long-term in Bergland, MI where they were available for occaisional use for additional braking effort on heavy trains descending the grade into White Pine. The cars of copper behind them are likely to be some of the last sent to White Pine, eliminating the need for the 40 footers. I doubt the old Soo Line boxes are going anywhere but a scrap yard.
