Box car passenger cars don't look much like box cars anymore! Converting them back to being real box cars are limited by the fact that Scenic apparently threw away the door hardware after converting the cars. The Friends have obtained enough door hardware to convert two back to being box cars, one done this year and one scheduled for next year.
