This 50’ standard
box car with plug door is painted Tuscan Red with black and white keystone herald
and white lettering. It was built in December 1959 by PRR’s Samuel Rea Shop and
runs on Bettendorf trucks. This class X53 box car was part of PRR’s
1959 program
to renovate its freight car fleet. They were generally used for handling food
products and were equipped with heaters, sliding ‘flush doors’ and nine belt-rail
Evans DF Loaders. The Evans DF loaders were a system of crossbars and belt rails
on the interior of the sides. Crossbars would be mounted on the belt rails to
prevent shifting of lading. | Back
