Your car wasn’t featured on the online Photographic roster. Suggesting that the car series is identical, I found a car similar to it:

The roster skips its, no one took the time to photograph it then,

The car featured above is located as the last car on this page. The next page shows that they skip to the 88600-series.

Note that the pictured car in the previous post is a cement car, not to be used for grain service.

See this other thread for photo of the actual car he’s asking about. We’ve got two threads here asking about the same car. It’s not the same type of car shown in this thread.
