D&RGW Boxcar 3132 measuring 30' over the end sills and 7'7" over the side sills. Cargo capacity 50,000 lbs. The car carried silica sand and was marked with large "S" to avoid potential contamination. Car 3132 currently bears the 1926-1936 lettering style, and is painted with the Royal Gorge/Moffat Tunnel herald introduced in 1936. When acquired by the NPS, the car was painted in the flying Rio Grande scheme of the 1939-1948 era. [http://www.hscl.cr.nps.gov/insidenps/summary.asp]
