Nostalgia & History > GT -- "the Good Track road"Date: 09/01/26 13:05 GT -- "the Good Track road" Author: MartyBernard I didn't know that was GTW's slogan. But it's right there on this slide of a boxcar.
GTW 384078 was on the BN rolling through Lisle, IL on May 13, 1991. James Deeds commented on Facebook, "Rebuilt ACF 60 foot precision design auto part boxcar. One of a 100 rebuilt into hi cubes for GM service." Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 09/01/26 13:18 by MartyBernard.
