C&S business car #911 was mounted on standard
gauge trucks from time to time. Notice how much smaller it is than
the preceding car, and the extension steps. Here it appears to be in
use as an inspection car being pushed down the line. Note the huge
observation windows and the rear view mirror. Richard B. Jackson

Left below. C&S car #911 in storage at the Black Hills Central in Hill
City, South Dakota, while apparently being used in a Gunsmoke episode.
It appears to be resting on standard gauge trucks. Note etched glass in
end doors and “extension”
steps to compensate for additional height of standard gauge trucks. |
