Usually the railroad reporting mark abbreviation is on there somewhere (i.e.
DMIR).  I know I have seen this on old freight cars, but I don't normally
look at passenger car trucks.  Also, it's been awhile, and I'm old, so I
forget exactly where to look, but I am thinking this is on the wheels rather
than the trucks.  For a old car, especially one out of service in a museum
or on display, all the markings might not agree, due to the need to use
whatever salvage parts can be found to replace missing parts.

It was suggested that the stampings on the car trucks would give a clue to
its identity.
So here they are.  Hopefully someone can ID this car. Even if it's not what
it appears to be.
