St. Louis Southwestern (SSW) B-100-26 Delivery 1970 brings one of the most-recognized paint schemes on a Greenville 86? box car to the Ford Brownstown Parts pool party. The Cotton Belt?s only group of Greenville 86ft Box Cars were delivered in March of 1970, painted in SP Scarlet Red including those aluminum doors! SP lettering gray was painted in an oval shape on the doors, leaving a huge SP in place in scarlet red. Also, the slogan HY-CUBE CUSHION-CAR along with most of the small data is accurately replicated in SP lettering gray. The COTTON BELT road name and reporting marks are accurately painted white. The prototype car featured a Center-Of-Car Cushioning underframe with 20-inch Keystone draft gear, and so does the Tangent model. The Keystone COCC system has a distinctive look ? notice how the draft gear sticks out longer than the car body. Truck-mounted brake details complete the underframe, along with corresponding truck-mounted brake beams on the 100-Ton Low profile Barber S-2-A trucks. At any angle, these B-100-26 box cars are stunners.
