Anyone happen to know if there's still a few boxcars in GCT? They were located on track 101.

There's a few photos of them on rrpicturearchive:

There was also a thread about them 10+ years ago:

For bonus points, there was a troop sleeper down there too, though I haven't heard about that one in a loooong time.

All still there and still used for various storage.

Niiiice. Thank you! One of these days I've got to get over there and shoot them (working on a project about repurporsed/abandoned/neglected rail cars.)
