Modifying the MTH 20-90005E PRR Wrecker Material Car

 

This model was issued as part of the MTH 20-90005 6-car wrecker train. It is a 40 foot boxcar designated as a Wrecker Material car.

 

The model is painted yellow with a silver roof. The lettering includes the X29 designation (Blt 8-24) which is not appropriate for this boxcar design. However some X29 boxcars were rebuilt in later years. A photo of a later design PRR X29L boxcar is attached.

 

The MTH model originally included rollerbearing style trucks.  The car has been modified by adding a wood floor and substituting Bettendorf style trucks.
