Early Multi-Unit Well Cars
Title:  Early Multi-Unit Well Cars
Description:  Before the pieces of multi-unit well cars were permanently joined with a single truck, they had these metal bars as semi-permanent connections. These cars were spotted on a Canadian Pacific intermodal train in Franklin Park, IL. Its amazing to see cars still in service that are hooked together this way.
