Boxcar Sunday, Let's see your boxcars.

Love the MA & PA

I want that!

No box car collection is complete without this one  -  mlaughlinNYC.

Six years total service with NYC betrween 1959 and 1968, the best jobs in a lifetime.

From my collection, which is mainly the 11948 catalog - all of the box cars

In 1949, we got operation

Last but not least, from my first train - Christmas 1942.

It's been a while, I just bought these Lionel grain box cars. 

THIS IS THE BEST CAR OF THE DAY GO EAGLES

Boxcars galore, D&H Lionel RS-11, with Mozart’s A Little Night Music in G Major Allegro:

The X-26 was a 40' 50-ton single sheathed USRA boxcar with a capacity of 100,000lbs.  The Government ordered 100,000 of them during WWI, of which 9,900 went to the PRR starting in 1919.  Following WWII nearly all were rebuilt into all steel cars.

During 1945-1949 the PRR rebuilt 3,500 X-26 cars into the X-26c boxcar.

These are AtlasO products.

My newest addition. P & L E. 

Cappilot,

   Ron here is one that went to the WAG RR in the Potter/Tioga mountains.  It's an Atlas product also.  I now have 4 of these, however Atlas only produced 2 Road numbers of the old WAG Box Cars.

PCRR/Dave

Crown also made a custom run of a Couple WAG Box Cars also, Pretty nice stuff but not as nice as the Atlas with their Super Detail.

Both the Atlas and the Crown made are pretty cool stuff, the WAG RR was very small, it serviced the Leather industry and Logging of the Pa mountains along Rt #6 thru the Pa Grand Canyon and up into Elmira, NY.   Having both these companies choose to make the WAG Box Cars was IMO fantastic!  My Great -Grandfather was one of the Engineers who actually pulled these Box Cars behind the Engines he drove up thru the Pa & NY mountains.  A part of RR story now long gone.

Just received still in boxes  made  in America and overseas 

A couple boxcars on my layout this week: 

Buffalo Creek 

Chicago And NorthWestern

Love the MA & PA
