I can't see two doors per side. The double decker at Cimarron only has one door per side.
Rio Grande Southern had only one door per side on their double deckers, also. That is probably more to the point since the car being loaded is an RGS car. You can tell the following pictures are of RGS double deckers by the supports for the upper deck sticking through the slats.
