The 'Hold For Heavy Repairs' stencil says it all. TH&B box car 3645 appears to have been in an altercation and has suffered some damage to one end. It is now sitting at the former TH&B yard at Aberdeen Avenue in Hamilton, ON. Note the Canada Centennial logo to the right of the partially open door. A little sheet metal repair and some paint and this car will be hauling loads in no time. :-)
