Deggesty CShaveRR edblysard You forgot to mention the guillotines. Oh, yes--and the shackles! And, of course, these box cars (everything's a box car) are actually Auto-Max cars, with air vents and everything. Carl, you answered the questions I was going to ask, about seats and ventilation. And Ed remined me about the restraints. Are guillotines an added feature? I do not recall any mention of them before.

This is an ongoing internet hoax. It seems to pop up with regularity every couple of years. Give it a little time, and some helpful folks here can provide the links to past disussions of the white boxcars on this forum.
