The United States Railway Administration took over the railroads in December 1917 in an
attempt to ease the freight car shortage. As part of the program it designed standard cars,
had them built and assigned them to the various railroads. 25,000 single
sheathed cars were built between 1918 and 1920 and assigned to 26 roads. Too late to aid in the war effort,
the design set a standard for the following decade.

PRR received 9,900 cars for itself and GR&I, LIRR and NYP&N, classed as X26. By January 1950, there were still 6188 cars, but down to just 15 by 1959, running into 1968.
