Boxcar 1353, Historic Image...

Boxcar number 1353 in operation on the Sumpter Valley Railway in the 1930's. This 30 foot car was built in the South Baker shops on the frame of a flatcar, and was completed and ready for service in January of 1920. The car was used until the end of regular mainline operations in 1947, before being sold to a resident in Baker City, Oregon who converted the boxcar into a backyard shed.
