Fallen flag  Contributor's Pick!       
Seven years into the UP-MP-WP merger, there was still a lot of predecessor road rolling stock kicking around. I caught this rather plain, but mostly clean, WP double door box rolling west on MEBU. Should have shot the next car too, an ICG box in orange.

Randy Curlin General Good catch. This is an example of a WP simplified re-stencilling prior to the UP-MP merger in 82. Many of these RBL boxcars were stored and later disposed during UP's 1990s purge of older rolling stock. 10/15/2015 12:40:43 AM
