<p>Never saw a car like that in Illinois on the old Alton/GM&O. I lifted many a 5 gallon and 10 gallon milk can into a baggage car from a baggage cart. The 5 gallon ones were no problem, close to 45 or so pounds, but the 10 gallon cans weighed twice that and had to be lifted a foot or so up and swung into the baggage car with the help or leg or slightly bruised shin. The full cans were headed north but I never saw an empty come back. Puzzling!</p> <p>Art</p>
