Lynn,

The "Special Service" designation refers to all other MOW and company
service cars, such as plows, flangers, dump cars, cranes, jordan spreders,
and box, gons and flats in MOW service. See attached example of a boxcar
(96803) in wreck train service as a tool car and an ex-DL&W flanger (95911).
