It looks suspiciously like the Milwaukee Road solarium car "Camp Grant."

If it is indeed the Camp Grant, then yes, it is on its way to IRM.

==================================================

To my knowledge "Stanley Yard" is in Toledo, Ohio and "Stanley Yard" was the former NYC yard.
My hometown is Bucyrus and the NYC local crews would travel north from Bucyrus to "Stanley Yd", Toledo.

Don't know what the car is.

Stanley Yard is the former New York Central yard outside of Toledo, Ohio.

Car was spotted at Proviso Yard in Bellwood, Illinois today by a brakeman friend. Should be in Union in a couple of days.
