General Notes:

a. Built as UP 1229; renumbered to UP 2035 in June 1915; renumbered to UP 1400 in October 1951; retired in June 1958.
b. UP 1229 was UP's first Harriman-style steel car. It was built by UP itself to Plan CB-4947, dated February 24, 1906, which was the basis for two experimental full postal cars. SP's Sacramento General Shops began construction of CP 4097 on June 11, 1906. Union Pacific’s Omaha shops started work on UP 1229 at about the same time. These cars were similar to the first steel coach (SP 1806), but there were differences. The underframe had the same two 12", 31.5-pound I-beam center sills, cast double body bolsters, and truss rods. However, the floors were not wood. Instead, Monolith was applied over the corrugated steel sub-floor. The arch of the roof was slightly higher, resulting in height over roof sheets of 13' 10 9/16" instead of the 13' 8 3/16" on SP 1806. All subsequent Common Standard cars had 14-foot roof heights. (Jeff Cauthen)
c. Builder Floor Plan: D-CB-5406 (before car was stripped for postal storage service by removal of the mail fixtures (pigeon hole letter cases, stanchion racks, etc.))
d. UP Specification 314
e. Cars lettered on sides between doors "United States Mail Storage Car".
f. Two 4'-10" doors on each side.
g. UP 1400-1459 are shown in ORPTE data as Postal Storage cars, 1952-1960
