Nostalgia & History > Here's a rare UP track inspection car.Date: 11/22/17 14:27 Here's a rare UP track inspection car. Author: lilwes Here is a slide taken by Merle T. Graves of a different UP track inspection car. The question is, who built it? The slide was taken in Topeka, KS. on March 5, 1957 so I have to guess it was nearing the end of it's service life. It has a lot more style that the Ford and Chevy pickups you see today. Thanks for looking.

Broadside view so couldn't tell what the radiator looked like, but the rest of the car looked similar to this one. Same front wheel, hood louvers, door arrangements.
