As the paint fades, the old reporting
marks begin to show through. This rail veteran wears CP 213 under its
NN colors! No doubt a Central Pacific car.

This unnumbered car appears to be
from the 400-series as described above. It has been modified with a
wooden extension, presumably for use transporting less dense material.
The NN sold some of these 400-series hoppers to the smelter in 1915-1916,
some to United Commercial Co., San Francisco in 1921-1922, and others
to NCCCo. between 1919 and 1922.
