D&RGW High side gon question

I was just up in Chama and while I was wandering around the yard I noticed a freshly repainted High Side gon there with no lettering. After looking over this gon, I noticed something quite interesting...not only did it have wooden draft arms but it was a four board (never rebuilt) car. Since it wasn't lettered, I don't know anything about which car this is. Anyone out there know which car this is and is it actually original? I've uploaded a pic of this car (you can see how low it is compared to the next car at the right side of the picture).
