No, not a USRA design car. It looks CB&Q, likely from the Fort Worth & Denver subsidiary.

It is one of the CB&Q, C&S and FW&D XM-25 / XM-26 boxcars made 1925/26.

See here some other surviving examples:

Sure, that's standard when you buy railroad equipment. Free delivery anywhere on the selling railroad :)
