But not all of these cars should be converted back to box cars. At least one needs to be maintained in good shape. In there own way, these cars are also historic, and perhaps more significant to the C&TS than those regular old 3000 series box cars. Would be nice if there was a couple. Now having said that, the modifications made for passenger service have a bad effect on the longevity of the cars with the exposed sills and sometimes squishy flooring used.
