Rebuilt 50' Boxcar


The Kanawha, Youngstown & Northern Boxcar #31582 was a class W22 50' Double Door car built by AC&F and was part of a 200 car order in the 23700-23899 series delivered in 1946. This general purpose boxcar was rebuilt and reclassified as a W31b and renumbered #31582 in October of 1972. This car is normally in pool service between a stamping plant at Charleston, WV and the Chevrolet Assembly Plant near Youngstown, OH. This is a Branchline Blueprint model with running boards removed and carbody installed on top a pair of National B-1 trucks. Boxcar was painted in the normal KY&N green dip with the small herald.
