With a Kansas City Southern reporting mark, this Golden West Service hopper was built in the 1970s and was used for bulk grain service in the Midwest. In an attempt to raise capital, in the late 1980’s Southern Pacific created “Golden West Service” which was a program that re-built old SP, SSW and D&RGW freight cars and sold them to various short lines. The Golden West Service program was mostly unsuccessful and relatively short-lived.
