Image Captions This boxcar is classed by its builder as a PS-1 type, although this is a broad classification as PS-1 is also interpreted to include the any boxcar built by Pullman-Standard after World War II. The 40-foot PS-1 cars like this one were manufactured beginning in 1947, and were based on the 1944 AAR design. The side and end ladders originally reached all the way to the top of the carbody, but federal law introduced in the 1960s mandated that roof-height ladders and brake wheels be outlawed. As such, it has been modified with a low brake wheel, half-height ladders and removed rooftop running boards.
