MWCX 462607
Title:  MWCX 462607
Description:  This is one of several former Rock Island cars I saw in Abliene, KS on Wednesday, 5-23-2012. Some of the other information is gone or painted over, but the stylized "R" tells who used to own this car! Built date is 12-79 so it wasn't very old when the Rock went out of business in March, 1980.
