– NW “Delivery HC-71 1973” shows off the classic NW delivery gray paint. Roanoke built this group of 1000 cars across 1973-1974. The car numbers are selected from August and September 1973 Roanoke production, with ribbed roof hatches and Keystone Portloc outlet gates. It’s hard to understate the importance of these cars for modelers of the last 50+ years. Check out that Roanoke-style 4750 body construction, including two vertical rows of huck bolts on the car sides, wider post flanges and slot-style jacking pads above the bolsters. The shaker brackets on the bays are mounted higher than their Pullman Standard-built peers. Yes, we tooled an all-new body to cover these details and more! The paint details stand out, with the classic yellow N&W return route box under the “Grain Loading Only” lettering. The centersill of the car even features the tiny car number and Roanoke paint code stencil! We duplicated the slight spacing variations on the one-inch CLOSE HIOPPER SLIDES stencils across these car numbers. Eagle-eyed modelers will notice the Tangent model’s A-B-C bay stencils are accurately applied with the “C” bay at the B-end of the car. This was just the N&W’s way of doing things. (Pullman typically labeled the “B” Bay to the B end of their cars!) The car sides have an ACI label mounted on a raised plate, matching the prototype. The accurate 100-Ton Barber S-2 Roller Bearing Trucks feature tiny N&W-applied T-188 truck class stencils, rotating Brenco-6 caps and 36” all-metal wheels. We are proud to offer these NW replicas in 12 road numbers: SKUs -01 through -08 feature 8-1973 build dates while SKUs -09 through -12 have 9-1973 build dates.
