This
70’ heavyweight mail baggage car is tuscan red with buff
lettering and runs on 6-wheel passenger trucks. Built in the
1920s, this heavyweight mail baggage car was used by Pennsylvania
Railroad and painted in the late Keystone scheme. Pennsylvania
was one of the largest railroads in the United States in the
late 1800s and early 1900s. In 1968, PRR merged with New York
Central to form Penn Central, which in turn went bankrupt and
joined several other failed roads to form Conrail. Conrail assets
are now split equally between CSX and NS.
