Montoya said he wants to restore the boxcar in the future but he's still trying to figure that out. His best guess for how the boxcar got turned into a home? He said maybe it got derailed and people just built around it – which was pretty common back then.

If that were the case then the wheel carriages would still be intact.

No, somebody either bought or found the boxcar and moved it to the site and put it on a foundation.

“His best guess for how the boxcar got turned into a home?”

Partly because there were no building codes back then. Otherwise it would have been prohibited.

Some people just south of Retreat built a house around the mobile home they were living in. There is a complete mobile home inside the house. Here it is on Google Maps street view:

I have a friend in Maine who has 3 Cabooses, 2 boxcars and a refrigerator car in his backyard. The boxcars has a huge N scale layout 80 by 40 in the boxcars, the Cabooses are his kids fort and the refrigerator car is where his game (deer, elk, rabbit, moose) is kept... The cars is on an half mile of track... He’s looking for a Baldwin sharknose loco or a GE U boat.
