Saw this car on a siding north of Noblesville while riding an Indiana Museum of Transportation fan trip. Car looked OK, but Monon lettering is about gone and graffiti has been added.

They currently have an NKP WWII era composite boxcar, a Gulf Oil tank car, and a PRR covered hopper painted and running.

FYI, Mont

Mike, Yes, I seem to recall MON 1220 has a pulled drawbar which is why it was donated to the museum. I believe Alcoa in Lafayette had it last. It still would...	Mont Switzer mhts_switzerm	Jul 13, 2009 1:24 pm
