Yes, I did miss the X31a as I had originally thought it was coming in July of this year. Old eyes. I have the X31a on order at my LHS. That and an X29 rounds out the needs for PRR box cars on my little Port Costa layout as overhead traffic in EB/WB traffic in Western Division Cal-P line SP freights.
By the way I appreciate your announcements for North American products. I would have to subscribe to too many scattered places to get that information. Unfortunately 90% if of the RTR these days is too modern for me as I am stuck in the last Harrah days of steam 1950-54.

Don't know that it will be an X29 but others have said Rapido will be doing more PRR cars in the future. Bill at Rapido models the O&W in the late steam era so he has an interest in late steam freight cars.
I would love to model steam, but sadly Rapido's attempt at Canadian steam is struggling - though as you note a lack of quality steam era freight cars is likely a contributing factor.
