We have a South Pacific Coast Flatcar in our collection that when recieved had three axle sets of 1887 Whitney wheels. The car was used on the Spc from 1888 to 1907, then on the North Shore / North Western Pacific until 1930 then was acquired by West Side Lumber where carried a camp car body.
We used the car for another 10 years before replacing the historic wheelsets with newly cast single plate wheels.
