Escanaba & Lake Superior boxcar question

[nkalanaga]

I have an E&LS 50 ft boxcar, used, by Con-Cor, on the way from my dealer.  I know it isn't accurate, but it's going to be kitbashing fodder.

My question is, did the E&LS own any revenue boxcars in 1974?  A 1972 reference I have says they only had 37 freight cars, and all of the boxcar pictures I can find are from the late 70s or later.  One would make an interesting interchange car for my BN.

Love the store-bought stencil set lettering. Now that's seriously on the cheap.

I've asked in the E&LS facebook railfan page.

Mark5:  Thank you!  Another PS-1 with an 8 ft door.  Boxcars with 8 ft doors seem to have been the Eastern standard.  Midwest and Western roads, at least into the 60s, tended to buy 6 ft doors, for grain loading.  Looks like I need another Atlas PS-1...

Not sure if this one survived until '74, nevertheless:

Nice shots! I'm gonna have to model both these cars! 

Is the double sheathed car a Harriman car? Looks Usra-ish but the vertical Murphy ends say otherwise...
