CMSTP&P RR Handled Bucket - Chicago Milwaukee St. Paul & Pacific Railroad c 1920

Description

This is 8.5 inches tall with a 7.25 inch base diameter & 5 inch opening. Most certainly the green paint is a later addition. The bale is clean. There is no rust but there are some small dents. C  M  ST  P  &  P  RR is embossed on the body.  In 1927 this rail road began use of The Milwaukee Road as its designation. I am only assuming that is the last time the official name was used on its supplies and tools.  The interior of this is clean so I assume this was used for water.           120
