Folks,
I ran across an article on the Sumpter Valley Railroad Restoration in the Narrow Gauge and Short Line Gazette for November 1975. One of the pictures shows the un-restored stock car sitting on Colorado & Northwestern freight car trucks.

There is a C & NW box car at the Colorado Railroad Museum that can use those trucks. Has the stock car been restored since that long ago article?

The Sumpter Valley Restoration is one of the champions of moving cars from Central America to Alaska to Baker City, Oregon.
