Hi Peter; There are significant differences between the PRR car and the AAR design that PRS modeled. The roof, ends and side sill are all quite different. The closest steel car you can model are the X26c (rebuilt USRA single sheated) and the X29b or d. All would require other parts (ends or roof). Jerry Glow offers decals for all three that you might be able to adapt to the X37.

I have been informed that the 1937 AAR steel box car kit is a close approximation to the Pennsy's X37 steel box car. Doing some research tonight, I think it indeed comes very close. I am now in search of S-scale decals for this model. I just sent an e-mail to Greg Komar. However, he doesn't have them listed on his site, so I'm not holding my breath. I am just curious to see if any of you have used this PRS kit for an X37 box car, and whose decals you used. Thank you for any leads, - Peter. -- Peter Vanvliet ([email protected]) Houston, Texas http://pmrr.org/ (my model railroad - RSS feed) http://fourthray.com/ (my company) http://houstonsgaugers.org/ (model railroad club) http://nasg.org/ --
