| This 50’
steel side, 14 panel fixed end gondola with coil steel load is
painted freight car red with white logo and lettering. It was
built in January 1952 and runs on Bettendorf trucks. This class
G31D gondola was part of a 1200-car order built by ACF in 1951-1952.
Similar to other G31 gondolas, but featuring fixed ends and wooden
floors, these revenue service gondolas were always painted standard
PRR freight car red with white markings. This gondola exhibits
an early PRR paint scheme with “circle-keystone”, “PENNSYLVANIA”
letters and rules. This arrangement lasted from 1920-1954. |
