Western Pacific 657 composite bay caboose converted in 1943 from a 1916 era Pullman Standard composite boxcar by the WP Jeffrey shop in Sacramento. It now resides at the Nevada State Railroad Museum at Carson City.
The PRR used the X23 as a basis to fill a shortage of cabooses during WWII. A total of 75 boxcars were converted into NX23 during 1943.
