I thought this also, it could use a better "freight car color" and cars of this age did not have the keystone on them. But for 6 bucks I will not complain. I am not good at reskinning so I will run them as is.

Unfortunately, if they are "official DLC", they probably won't be able to be edited. They'll install as "built-in" or "payware" with the permission tag included which prevents changes from being submitted

X23 cars did have keystones on them; they wore the "Circle Keystone" scheme most of their service lives (except for ones converted to MOW use). Although I'm pretty sure most were built without any herald, just text. Go to Google, click on Images, search for PRR X23 and you'll see lost of examples.
Well, I've spent a couple of hours searching for color pictures from the 1930's and 40's of these boxcars without luck. The few b&w photos show that the lettering and logos on these is spot on with the exception of the keystone not being in a white circle.
All four skins.
I'd argue that 3DZugg's color choices are certainly reasonable for hard used, weathered boxcars. I would have loved to see some of the variants of the X23 like the vertically sheathed box, the stock car, and, of course, the NX23 WWII era cabin car http://www.trainsarefun.com/modeling/lirrNX23A.htm. Maybe in the future...

:wave: Diesel may run a lot in the current day,
However I must say, Steam is truly a site to behold from the latest round of Pics displayed here :udrool:
If only if I had been born in the beginning of the 1900's.........Steam is still very much KING......
