Bring a beautifully detailed piece of Pennsylvania Railroad freight history to your HO scale layout with the Rapido 123009-4 40' X31A Double-Door Boxcar, decorated as PRR #69215 in the early Shadow Keystone scheme. The X31A was one of the PRR's signature freight cars — over 6,700 were built from 1934 onward, and the round-roof design made them instantly recognizable on the rails through the steam and transition eras.
