– INTX “ex-Kellogg Grain” 2015+ gives modelers a contemporary example of a patched car.  We chose this ex-Kellogg Grain Co. car that was acquired by Interstate Commodities and is part of the substantial INTX lease fleet.  This car is sharp looking, with a carbody that has weathered to a darker yellow, Kellogg graphics have weathered from blue to green and a roof walkway that has lost its original yellow paint.  The car replicates the complicated dance of 2015 lettering.  This translates to original Kellogg lettering, former lessor lettering, paint-outs of conspicuity stripes, reapplication of conspicuity stripes and more.  And yes, don’t worry, we have the AEI tag and bracket mounted on the car where it should be.  This ex-PTLX car features a Pullman body with open-hole posts, center-tube train air line, and truck mounted brake hardware.  (Notice there is no brake cylinder on the B-End!)  The bays are equipped with beautifully replicated early-style Miner outlet gates.  Up on top, the roof features replacement roof hatch covers. The model is equipped our 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with accurate “Timken” rotating caps and correct truck-mounted brake beams.  INTX lease fleet cars have never been so easy!
