Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 250066 ( ex-8661 ) at Burlington, Iowa on October 23, 1983, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The Burlington purchased 300 troop kitchen cars after World War II and converted them to mail storage and express baggage cars. Some were later converted to freight cars requiring the installation of ladders and walkways on the roof. Eventually some ended up in MOW service.
