I think, or maybe it's pallets of the wood used to make the guitars - there is a sign with a wood type(?) on top of each of the 4 items on the flatcar. While I know what this car looks like, I never paid a lot of attention to studying it. Maybe it's even guitar product lines? I know literally zero about guitars... the signs say Mahogany, Sitka Spruce, Rosewood, and Ebony, and the boxes seem to be colored to coordinate with the names.

Never knew about the flat car with wood pallets that are supposed to be miniature Martin Guitars. Very nice. Would love to have one since my most treasured tangible non-living thing is a nylon string Martin Guitar made in the mid-1960s. Arnold
