Captured in a westbound freight entering Elkhart yard early this morning. Thanks.

Looks like one of those safety training box cars with that side 'door'.

The "self contained" track geometry cars usually have solar panels to keep the batteries charged. Can't tell from the photo if there are panels on the roof of this car.
