Great Northern 40' Single Door Box Car #19038 Circus Series #9

Great Northern

Circus Series #9

Roadnumber 19038

This 40’ standard box car with single door is orange with green lettering and runs on Bettendorf trucks. In an effort to develop a new paint scheme, Great Northern decorated a number of box cars in different experimental paint schemes in 1956 and sent them across the GN network for feedback. Due to the bright and gaudy colors, this group of cars were dubbed the “Circus Cars”
