Between 1924 and 1934, the Pennsylvania Railroad purchased or built over 30,000 of the X29 class of box cars. The X29 became the most prolific freight car of the late Steam/Transition Era. These cars appeared in every corner of the US and Canada. The Pennsylvania Railroad had more X29s than some railroads had total rolling stock! In 1939, there were 39,000 X29s on the PRR roster. By 1953, there were still 23,000 in service. 

The X29 is shorter in height than other boxcars of its day, designed this way in order to navigate the tunnels into New York City. As it turned out, the tunnels were inappropriate for freight service, so the cars rarely saw that duty.

For more information on these cars, visit the web page devoted to them at:
