From eBay

Ex Amtrak Car (now RPCX 4006) used to transport rail and wheel sets. 40' to 50' Lengths inside car. Hoist at end of car for rail removal, electric and manual. Brakes are 26C, Outside Swing Trucks, tread brakes. Couplers are good.

Trucks are low mileage, 250,000 mi so one could get a Truck Roll Out Inspection and continue the use of the trucks on another Amtrak car. Wheel thickness is very good. 8' wheel base. Ex Hospital Car from early '50s

The brakes will be tested for a one time move to your destination.
This car can be picked up by the railroad from this location and delivered to the location of your choice!!
