Pennsylvania’s F41 flatcars were completed in the road’s Altoona, PA car shops.  The body castings had numerous differences from the standard GSC design, including a different side profile, and substantially different shapes of the car ends.  PRR built the first 500 F41 cars in 1955-56 as PRR 469500-469999. 200 more F41s were completed in 1956 as PRR 469300-469499.  The F41 cars were painted in the road’s “shadow keystone” scheme with “Pennsylvania” spelled out across the carbody, but no logo.  These first two groups of cars rode on 70-ton plain bearing ASF A-3 trucks.  Some cars received roller bearing trucks in the Conrail era, as seen on the prototype photo of PRR 469745.
