Micro-Trains Line 02000137 - 40' Standard Box Car, Single Door Illinois Central Gulf (ICG) 167100 - N Scale

This 40’ boxcar with Bettendorf trucks was converted in the early 1970s for bulk salt loading in a group of around 90 cars. As the salt was very corrosive, the cars didn’t last long, and most were retired by the 1980s. Illinois Central Gulf was formed after the merger of Gulf, Mobile & Ohio and the Illinois Central in 1972. Eventually, Canadian National purchased the railroad in 1998. Multi-Media kit.
