Found a Bob McGilvray photo on the internet with another of these historic steel sided outside braced Union Pacific boxcars:

U.P. #350715 was located on the ground in 2011 in Evanston, Wyoming. Not sure if it is still there, but if so, might help with the restoration of the boxcar at the Ford's Greenfield Village.

Rich -

Detroit & Lima Northern 4-4-0 #7 was put into active service at Greenfield Village some time ago.

D&LN #7 departed with it's first revenue train on June 6, 2013 following its restoration.
