In an attempt to solve this problem, President Wilson nationalized the railroads under the United States Railway Administration, or USRA. One of the first tasks assigned to the USRA was to develop common designs for new freight cars. Among these was a 40' single-sheathed wood boxcar with a steel underframe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStarting in 1918, 25,000 copies of the single-sheathed boxcar were built. Originally delivered to 22 railroads throughout the country, the cars were well received. Many cars continued in regular service in their original form well into the 1950s. Although delivered with KC brake systems many were updated to AB-brake systems prior to 1953.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe USRA single-sheathed cars formed significant parts of many railroad's fleets. The New York Central System had 2,500 cars, the Milwaukee Road had 3,000 copies and the Pennsylvania had over 9,700 cars. The PRR's cars were delivered with wooden doors, but many later received either Youngstown corrugated or Creco panel doors. The Pennsy's cars were some of the longest-living with a dozen cars still listed for interchange in 1968! Several railroads later rebuilt their single-sheathed cars with steel sides, and the New York Central even converted 700 of them into stock cars in the 1940s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRapido's new model of the USRA single-sheathed boxcar features an all-new body with correct steel underframe and correct free-standing details.

Formed in 1974 as a subsidiary of Trailer Train Company (now TTX Company), Railbox did for box cars what Trailer Train had done earlier for piggybacking: established a pool of cars that could be used by all member railroads, without the burden of routing rules that prioritized empty cars for return to their home railroad. With its slogan of “Next Load, Any Road!”, Railbox strove to minimize empty backhauls and keep loaded cars flowing wherever needed, throughout the U.S., Mexico and Canada.\u003cbr\u003eThe initial 1974 Railbox order was for 10,000 boxcars with the reporting marks RBOX, supplied by a variety of car builders including Pullman-Standard, American Car and Foundry, and FMC. The 50' RBOX cars exemplified modern box car design at the time: welded rather than riveted construction; exterior support posts to maximize interior space and provide a smooth interior wall; and a lack of roof walks, which had been outlawed in the 1960s for safety reasons. With roof access no longer needed, the cars' end ladders only went partway up the sides, to allow crew members to ride the cars during switching moves.\u003cbr\u003eBeginning in the 1980s, the need for box cars — once a mainstay of American freight trains — began to shrink as loads that had formerly moved in box cars shifted over to containers. Many Railbox cars were sold off to other railroads and repainted in a variety of paint schemes. Although the earliest RBOX cars are approaching the end of their legal 40-year service life, many are still plying the rails for various owners, and TTX Company still supplies 50' and 60' RailBox boxcars throughout North America.\u003cbr\u003eHigh quality, traditionally sized RailKing Freight Cars provide detailed bodies and colorful paint schemes for the O Gauge railroader.

The decision to obtain some of these locomotives was paramount, but with wartime restrictions still in place, the Reading had to look to their existing fleet for conversion.  The I10-sa Class 2-10-0 locomotive fit the bill, and Reading started the in-house conversion of 30 of these I10 locomotives to the new class T1 Northern.  The new T-1's entered service between 1945 and 1947 and were used primarily in fast freight service.  Their operating territory included most of the Reading system, and they were also used in pool service with the Western Maryland Railway.  The first 20 units were equipped for freight service.

The decision to obtain some of these locomotives was paramount, but with wartime restrictions still in place, the Reading had to look to their existing fleet for conversion.  The I10-sa Class 2-10-0 locomotive fit the bill, and Reading started the in-house conversion of 30 of these I10 locomotives to the new class T1 Northern.  The new T-1's entered service between 1945 and 1947 and were used primarily in fast freight service.  Their operating territory included most of the Reading system, and they were also used in pool service with the Western Maryland Railway.  The first 20 units were equipped for freight service.  The last 10 were equipped for passenger service, but still primarily used for freight service.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Reading T-1's did not last long in service.  All 30 were in storage by 1954, with a few returning briefly in 1955 due to a surge in traffic.  Most were sold or permanently retired and scrapped by 1958.  The Reading Railroad kept four of the T-1's for an excursion service that they called the Iron Horse Rambles.  The plans were for 2100 and 2124 to pull the excursion trains, and they would keep 2101 as a back-up and 2123 as a source of parts.  2123 was scrapped in 1966, and 2124 was replaced by the recently purchased 2102 in 1962.  The Iron Horse Ramble excursions last until 1964, and the remaining locomotives were sold in 1965.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The four T-1's used in the Iron Horse Rambles still survive today.  2101 was famously restored and used to pull the American Freedom Train in the mid-1970s.  It was then repainted into the Chessie System livery in 1977 to pull the Chessie Steam Special, an excursion train running to celebrate the 150th birthday of the B\u0026amp;O Railroad.  2102 ran various fan trips for several decades, and is currently owned by the Reading Blue Mountain \u0026amp; Northern Railroad and is occasionally brought outside for display.  2124 is currently on display at Steamtown USA in Scranton, PA.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In 2022, Broadway Limited is building our first production of Reading T1 4-8-4 steam locomotives in N scale.  We are building three in-service Reading models and three \"Iron Horse Ramble\" models.  We are offering 2101 in the Chessie Steam Special livery and also its later Reading \u0026amp; Northern paint scheme.  We are also offering one model in the 1976 American Freedom Train paint, and one model decorated like the Delaware \u0026amp; Hudson #302 locomotive.

They were also ubiquitous on themainline, often in multiple units of three, six or even 11 cars! CN's RDCscould be found across the country in early years and mainly in the Torontoarea in later years. Eager to cut costs, CP used the RDCs everywhere,especially in commuter service, the Maritimes, and on Vancouver Island.

Atotal of 948 units were built for railroads in the United States andCanada. The GP30s were designed to compete with GE's U25B. The U25B offered2500 horsepower, while the existing EMD GP20 was only rated at 2,000 hp.The EMD's engineering department ended up using a 16 cylinder 567D3 enginethat produced 2250 hp for the GP30. They also made several improvements tothe GP20 design meant to match the U25B - a sealed airtight long hood, asingle central air intake, and easier access for maintenance. These changesrequired more space behind the cab, and this was achieved vertically byraising the height of the locomotive, providing space for the central airsystem, the turbocharger, and electrical cabinet. This increased heightmeant a new body was required. EMD wanted the new body to be modern andupdated, so the GM Automotive Styling Center created the GP30's unique\"hump\" and cab roof profile. In the 2020s several GP30s have been preservedin museums and some are still operating for Class I and shortlinerailroads. This detailed model features roadname-specific detailing, finedecoration, a flywheel-equipped drive and a die cast chassis for greatperformance.

The earliest cars had solid underframes while later cars were equipped with Duryea cushion underframes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis design was so successful that other roads took note such as; the Central Railroad of New Jersey, Lehigh \u0026amp; New England, Lehigh Valley, Pittsburg \u0026amp; West Virginia and the Western Maryland. Production was spread out between the Reading and the purchasing roads, which meant variations were bound to be made to the original design. Different groups of cars were equipped with different trucks, running boards, steps, grabs and end wall windows (or lack thereof).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMany of these cabooses were used well into Conrail and Chessie eras, being used in regular service until the end of mandatory caboose operations. Some would continue in local service while many were sold second-hand to other railroads - Class Is and shortlines alike!
