These
Pennsy-assembled 50' exterior-post boxcars were built
from a variety of supplied components in the early
1960s, with the railroad eventually housing a roster
of 2.565 cars. The X58 class and its variants were
the signature freight car for the railroad in its final
years. The Lehigh Valley also utilized 100 cars of
this design. The majority of the class survived through
Penn Central into Conrail, and some received the Norfolk
Southern livery at the beginning of the 21st century.
The body and underframe are injection molded plastic,
with etched brass roofwalk, brake platform and
end platforms. Intricate and accurate detail is
present throughout. The model rides at the prototypically-correct
height above the rails, on BLMA's ASF 70-ton Ride
Control roller-bearing trucks fitted with low-profile
metal wheelsets, and comes with the following
equipment variations based on the prototype:
As-Built body - with roofwalk, high brake gear,
high ladders
Transitional body - no roofwalk, high brake gear,
low ladders except for the A end
Transitional body variant - no roofwalk, high brake
gear, high ladders
Modern - no roofwalk, lowered brake gear, low ladders
Hydra-Cushion or Keystone cushioned underframe.
Simulated cushioned-underframe coupler pockets
are integrated into the underframe. The model is
equipped
with Micro-Trains® #1015 coupler knuckles.
Operation
of this model over curved trackage of 9¾-inch
radius is not recommended.
These cars exhibit an unprecedented attention to
detail.
