Description
Great Northern - Rd# 79033 - rel. 12/23
This 65’ mill gondola with Roller Bearing trucks was built for Great Northern Railway in the mid 1950s and was designed to haul finished structural steel shapes and other bulky loads. It later made its way to Burlington Northern’s fleet, and was repainted in the 1970s. It had a 1,768 cubic foot capacity and featured drop ends that allowed the gondola to carry loads longer than the car. Burlington Northern was formed through the mergers of Great Northern and Northern Pacific in 1970, and then merged with ATSF in 1995 to form BNSF.
