This box car with Barber Roller Bearing trucks was built for the Port Huron & Detroit Railroad and was later obtained by the Sabine River & Northern. The Port Huron & Detroit Railroad was incorporated on September 1, 1917 and remained in business until 1984 when it was sold to the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad. To encourage the return of the boxcars, shortline railroads, like Port Huron, could charge a per diem, or daily fee, until the cars were returned.
