Description

These Northern Pacific gondolas in series 118541-118590 were built in 1936-1937. Decades later, these GS gondolas were converted with the addition of wooden extensions. As represented here, the extensions allowed for loads such as woodchips or sugarbeets. Sugarbeets are root crops with farms in over 10 states across America. These foot-long beets account for producing over 5 million tons of sugar in the U.S. each year!
