– Chicago & North Western (CNW) “Original Clinton Reweigh” 1959+ is a classic box car scheme, this time the C&NW “brown” car with black ends, but this is a patched car, where the original “NEW 1956” date has been painted out and a “CLN 10-59” has been restenciled in its place, with the CLN representing the Clinton, IA car shop.  This beautiful car includes the sharp, large C&NW logo in black and white on the upper right carbody side.  The left side of the car includes the CNW reporting marks with lines above and below them as found on these Pullman-Standard painted cars.  The brake stencils above the right side trucks have been updated to match the prototype photos.  These boxcars were built at Pullman-Standard’s Michigan City, IN plant and of course our car covers that correctly with the “TENTH ANNIVERSARY 1956” PS-1 stenciling next to the door.  These cars include the second version of the Superior 9’ door, with a different horizontal support pattern than the Southern cars that preceded these.  These cars have a black car cement roof, but the roof includes the typical Pullman carbody color overspray onto the top of it from the sides.  This new model rides on the Tangent Scale Models 50-Ton ASF A-3 plain bearing truck.  This C&NW model is an exact replica.  And don’t forget – C&NW stenciled “Safety First” with yellow stenciling on the carbody side corners!
