Title United States Army hospital Car
Creator Smith & Edwards Surplus yard
Image Captions This car is example of the type of car used to move wounded soldiers by rail once they arrived back from overseas. It was basically a hospital ward on wheels and could provide all needed services. This particular car was rescued from the back lot of the Smith & Edwards Surplus Store in Willard, Utah, Sept 2001. It has been restored by the Golden Spike Chapter of the Railway & Locomotive Historical Society to what it would have looked like during WWII.
