CB&Q Class XM-32F 63056
Title:  CB&Q Class XM-32F 63056
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad Class XM-32F 63056 at Cicero, Illinois on an unknown day in October 1982, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This car was stenciled: WHEN EMPTY RETURN L&N RR LOUISVILLE, KY . According to the COTS sticker, this car was built 3-58 . The following is from Burlington Route Historical Society's publication Burlington Bulletin No. 7, edited by Hol Wagner: "One of eight cars rebuilt in 1962 with 8' doors and 15 Damage-Free belts, 63056 became a class XP with large "DF" lettering. Note the strengthened side sills on this car. Cars 63056, 63093, 63101, 63153, 63176, 63418, 63662, and 63818 were rebuilt at Havelock in 1962 with 8' doors and equipped with 15 DF-2 loading belts. They were reclassed XP at that time." The following is Note 20 from the October 1971 ORER ( Official Railway Equipment Register ): "Individual numbers of cars in series 62500 to 63999 that are specially equipped with loaders and differing in A.A.R. Mech. Designation and width of side door opening from other cars in same series; A.A.R. Mech. Designation XL, width of side door 8 ft.: 63056 63093 63101 63176 63418 63570 63662 63818 ".

The CB&Q had 1,500 boxcars class XM-32F boxcars built at the Havelock, Nebraska shops during 1958, numbered 62500 - 63999. The 62500 - 63399 series all received the 81-B trucks and Superior five-panel doors, and cars in the 63400 - 63999 series received Improved Youngstown/Camel doors and the 79-A trucks. When built, all were painted in the new Chinese Red paint with Way of the Zephyrs and Everywhere West slogans in block lettering below the herald, and white stripes above and below the reporting marks. Those details were eliminated during the 1960's. Also during the 1960's the Scotchlite herald decal was replaced with a stencil, still in full red/black/white. By 1968, the BN merger was all but assured, and cars repaired after 1968 received the BN Cascade Green pre-merger paint scheme.
