This
70’ heavyweight mail baggage car is painted in the two-tone
post-war gray scheme with white ‘New York Central’
letters. The roof is black and underframe is dark gray and runs
on 6-wheel passenger trucks. Major metropolitan areas generated
a lot of correspondence and during the early 20th Century few
rivaled New York. The railroad had a huge fleet of cars specifically
designed to transport mail and postal freight across the country.
