This appears to be another oddity like Van [[DAR000091|No. 91]]. Pictured here are two vans at the back with boarded up cupolas that appear to have been made out of boxcars. The large side door is gone although the door sill is still clearly visible and has been replaced by a single door on the front side end. The second van is only half visible but appears to be the same thing.
