This is the wooden Bessemer (Ex URR?) boxcar being restored by the FCVRRHS in Meadville. This is the finished side, the other side still needs some wood replaced. It's in our display in Pomona Park (at the entrance to the old EL yard) between the Erie S2 518 and the ELHS caboose 354.  |

Very nice looking boxcar! Great to see preserved rolling stock. As for it being ex-URR, I don't know. I have seen a URR boxcar that looked very similar to this one though. Thanks for sharing and look forward to more updates.

I will post a few more pics, I've got them stashed somewhere.. Our group got the boxcar from the Lakeshore RR museum in North East Pa, it had sat up there for a while. That's where the origins on the URR comes from, evidently it was originally a 1908 built URR that went to the Bessemer in 1912?
