1112/1116 Automobile Boxcar

The 6" automobile boxcar was catalogued from 1919 to 1934, and featured numerous variations. Originally produced in yellow(ish) and white, the first cars were lettered for the American Flyer Lines. In the late 1920's the design reappeared in red and white, then yellow and black. At some point during production this boxcar was also lettered for the Canadian Pacific (yellow), the NYC&HR (origin of road name unknown) (white), Southern Ry. (green), and the Southern Pacific (also green. Possibly derived from the Southern Ry. lithography designs).
