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.
Baltimore & Ohio received 500 cars from Haskell & Barker in 1919 and classed them M-24,series 187000. B&O had 421 cars in 1950, down to 8 by 1959, running into the 1960's.
-Data from a Westerfield HO Car Kits catalog and Dave Nelson.
