What a find! This is an X-KCS car (yes, CTIE is a KCS reporting mark); a sister car is abandoned high on the bluff above the yard where a siding was abandoned, or at least it was in the late 1990s. The doors were put in the side to allow crosstie materials to be loaded out by hand without having to lift the material over the side. Amazing this thing is still moving around. There is info about it from a former KCS employee here:http://kansascitysouthern.homestead.com/kcsmow.html and you can see another photo here: http://kansascitysouthern.homestead.com/files/MOW/C-TIE.jpg
