Re: Box cars in D&SNG passenger consists

The box cars have been traditionally used for back packs, and camping gear used by the many hikers who ride the trains into and out of the canyon. They carry other bulky items (LCL freight, although I don't know if it is technically considered "freight") hauled into the canyon for the few summer residents along the railroad and supplies for events at the pavilion at Cascade. They also contain a water tank, pump, and firefighting equipment.

The box cars used in this service have been reinforced for use as head end cars.
