62' Insulated Box Car
Prototype Information
Santa Fe introduced the BX-166 insulated boxcars around 1977 to haul temperature-sensitive freight like canned goods, beverages, and packaged foods. These 62-foot cars featured plug doors, insulation, and cushion underframes to protect delicate loads. With over 6,000 cubic feet of capacity, they offered high-volume shippers a reliable solution for food-grade service.
In the early 1980s, Santa Fe followed up with the BX-177 class, which carried similar specifications with minor design updates. Both classes prominently displayed Shock Control or Super Shock Control graphics and became a familiar sight on food and beverage routes. After the 1995 merger, BNSF and various leasing companies continued to operate many of these cars in active service.
