Here is the listing for LU box cars from the 1 - 1981 ORER for short line owners. I've listed what I think is the builder by using demensions and notes in the ORER. Where I've placed a question mark by the builder is where I'm not 100 % positive about the builder. From what I understand, Evans Products was taken over during 1983 during a Junk Bond raid and was liquidated in BK in 1985 or 86. Thrall Railcar was merged into Trinity Industries during 2001.
