When I read this, I remembered I had a Chessie box car or two but wasn’t sure if they were still part of my collection. Unfortunately, when I checked my inventory spreadsheets, someone else already has them. They were the 6-9740 yellow single door and 6-9747 blue double door box cars. A quick search on the big auction site indicates they are available but condition varies greatly. Just food for thought regarding a couple possible additions to your Chessie freight train.
