It was built in June 1926 and lettered in black. Since the railroads revenues were dependent on the correct measurement of loaded cars, great emphasis was placed on proper maintenance of the scales. Charged with the responsibility of keeping all the track, truck, baggage and freight scales on their respective lines in perfect condition, the scale inspector s arrival was often preceded by the appearance of the small scale test car. The scale test cars were always to be hauled just in front of the caboose.
