HK-51a 50' CP Single Door Autoparts 42500-42526 - No Roofwalk

The introduction of these 50' auto parts boxcars in the late 1960's coincided with the growth of the automotive industry and the need for specialized rail transport solutions. CP Rail's investment in these cars demonstrated their commitment to serving the automotive sector and adapting to changing transportation needs in the latter half of the 20th century. These boxcars were part of a broader trend in North American railroading towards purpose-built freight cars designed to meet the needs of specific industries and cargo types.
