Hi Andy,

The WW&F's new boxcar is Bridgton & Saco River number 67, built by Laconia in 1905. It was acquired from the Maine Narrow Gauge Museum, which is thinning out its collection ahead of the planned move from Portland, ME to Gray, ME. The car spent more than 40 years (1950s-1990s) as a storage shed at Edaville and was never modified for passenger service, so it appears to be pretty much all original as far as woodwork goes (though what remains is going to require a lot of attention).
