[CBQ] Boxcar Series Question

["'Nelson Moyer' ku0a@mchsi.com [CBQ]" <CBQ@yahoogroups.com>]

I went through the CB&Q listings in the 1953 ORER, and I found four number series between 20000-22749 that I can’t identify to class. They are listed as follows:

 

XAP, auto, steel, 20000-20299

XAP, auto, steel, end door, 20500-20509

XM, steel, 21000-22749 (25 cars in this class were classed XME and they had DF loaders)

 

I’m guessing these were the 50 ft. steel boxcars with and without end doors that Walthers offered, but I don’t know the CB&Q class to which they were assigned. The publication index wasn’t helpful, as a search on these series number gave C&S hoppers.

 

What classes were these cars?
