[RITSlist] Box cars

[Lester Brandt]

In "Rock Island Color Guide to Freight and Passenger
Equipment", page 59, center photo,  background upper
left, is a Rock Island 40 ft. box car numbered 47121. 
The roof is a diagonal panel and the door appears to
be 6 ft. wide.  

Page 36 of the same book lists #s 47000-47020
converted for bulk flour from #s 145000-145999.  Is
the 47121 a later conversion from a later series of
cars?  

I have no reference material that includes this number
car.  Does anyone out there have more info?  Thanks,

Les Brandt
