New Date: 6-1975 About the Prototype:  Between 1973 and 1977 a series of bulkhead flat cars with similar dimensions and characteristics were built for the BCOL, CN and DW&P. The Canadian roads had a variety of bulkhead flat car designs for a variety of services, particularly for use in pulpwood and lumber ser- vice. Many of these cars can still be seen today with secondary owners. Some are still used in their original roles in pulpwood and lumber service. While others now haul miscellaneous cargo such as steel I-beams, sheet metal and rebar.
