What we have here is a picture of a freight car that I have not been able to identify. Who built it? When was it offered? And, in the real world, what kind of loads would we expect to see hauled by it? It has UP markings and road number 50000. One truck on each end has MTH cast into the underside. No other indication that MTH built this car. It's 19.5 inches long, coupler to coupler.

MTH 4 truck (depressed center) transformer car.
Looks like a mashup of Premier 20-98106 (the flat car) and Railking 30-76005 (the load).
Thank you Engineer Joe. That's exactly what I was looking for. My search within the MTH pages just wasn't working for me.
MTH used that depressed center flat car for different loads.
It looked like the Lionel four truck depressed flat car but it's not. Now I'm depressed. Don
