I thought they were the backbone of their boxcar fleet. Are new ones being built, or do they not need boxcars anymore?

Regardless, the C&S SUF boxcars turn 100 next year. Not bad for the WP&Y ones which have been in service almost continually for that entire time...albeit in lighter duty the past 30 years.
