This group of Chicago & North Western Phase III cabooses was built by International Car between 1966 and 1968. They were on their second or third paint schemes by the time they received this version in Zito yellow with the fluttering U.S. flag and “Pulling Together” motto. Another feature of this paint scheme is the odd 3-box format of consolidated stencils.
