Greenville 60' Double Plug Door Box Car

Detroit Toledo & Ironton  DTI 25928

1972 To Present!

Introduced in 1972, the Greenville 60' Double Plug Door Box Car was built for auto parts service.

Railroads contributed freight cars as a part of equipment pools, and these pools served the automobile manufacturing and supply facilities of automobile makers.

The equipment pools were constituted in such a way that there wasn't correspondence between the paint schemes of railroad equipment and the home rails of the facilities which these cars served.

Once in a pool, one paint scheme was as likely to be seen as another, and some cars were hardly ever seen on home rails.

For the majority of its service life, the Greenville 60' Double Plug Door box cars were assigned to Ford Motor Plant in Lima, Ohio - as designated by the pool number 322.

The Greenville 60' Double Plug Door cars were then distributed across service routes to facilities across the country which used this component.
