908372 was built in 1950 and was used to carry commodities such as coal
and rock. Doors on the bottom of the car drop to allow
unloading. The car was later converted to carry panels of track and
assigned to the Council Bluffs Iowa wreck train. Retired by the UP
in 2000, #908372 was donated to the BCRHS by Daniel Quiat in 2001.
