This Heavyweight Depressed-Center flat car was built in 1929 by the Standard Steel Company in Butler PA. This car was one of a five car fleet owned by Erie Railroad. It was equipped with 6-wheel Commonwealth trucks with one piece cast bodies, making them remarkably durable. Strong, lightweight and adaptable to customer’s needs, the Commonwealth trucks helped to make possible smoother, more reliable transportation on the rails.
