As part of the upgrades, Pennsy launched a major rebuilding program for its signature X29 boxcars, resulting in a larger capacity car with a bigger body mounted on the original underframe, classified as the X29b. These cars served for many years in a variety of Pennsylvania RR schemes including the PRR circle keystone, PRR shadow keystone script, shadow keystone plain, plain keystone, merchandise service (as built) and merchandise service (late). This model is available in these schemes as well as undecorated. The fully assembled model features:
Correct 10'6" interior height, modernized roof, ends and doors
Separately applied ladders, grab irons and other details
Correct size RP-25 metal wheelsets
Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers
