Painted freight car red w/ white herald and lettering; built sometime in the 1880s on Barber Coleman Arch Bar trucks. The Carson & Colorado Railway was a narrow gauge railroad that ran from Mound House, NV, to Keeler, CA. It was incorporated on May 10, 1880 as the Carson & Colorado Railroad with construction on the railroad beginning on May 31, 1880. The line was reorganized as the Carson & Colorado Railway in 1892 to reduce accumulated debt. Today, the car runs with the ‘Slim Princess’ at the Laws Railroad Museum & Historical Site, located near Bishop, CA.
