In the early 1940s, 690 X-31 box cars were converted to X-31F. The original roof sheets were used on the ends and the center sheets were changed to create an interior height of 11'. The cars were used to haul jeeps during World war II. Some of these cars were equipped with automobile loaders. A few of them were still on the Equipment Register in 1967.

"great car"

This is a great looking car. I bought it because it is unique. It is iron oxide color, but I spray painted it an interesting light color to show the detail. I love the unique turtle roof, and the doors are separate, so you can paint them contrasting, and the detail really stands out. There are no decals, so customize it with your own dry-transfers. I tried to capitalize on an old-fashioned feel. I used dry-transfers to create a billboard car hauling a dubious snake oil health elixir. This model is easy to build. This stands out as a unique car in my collection.
