Carl, Doug and Mike,
Thats the cars I took photos of, it and quite a few other of like kind are in UPs Basin Yard.
I like the shot of the empty, it shows the internal bracing.
Mike, I resentthem this morning, wonder why they didnt go through?
They open with windows picture and fax viewer.

Hey this thread is great! I have seen several of the OTDX cars and didn't have a clue as to what they were.

Here is a link that I found, now that I know what they are called:

Thanks guys![:)]

Ed, how about a number?

Now that I have your description, I'm betting they're OTDX 6000-series cars. And, yes, they were also built that way.

Hi,
I'm looking for the person who posted in another thread, which I now cant find, about the railcar that looked like a boxcar with the sides cut out.
I have a few photos of what I think may be your sideless car, loaded and empty.
E-mail me a address that will support photos, and I will send them to you.
If these are the same cars, they carry small, 10x10 stackable containers used for chemicals, they are designed to be unloaded with fork lifts.
UP spots them in the Goodyear Pasadena refinery.
Stay Frosty,
Ed
