Description
– Bessemer & Lake Erie (B&LE) “Conspicuity Repaint” 2005+ replicates the black repaint version of these B&LE hoppers, including the conspicuity striping, representing the 2005 to present era. The Tangent model features an accurate 1975-built Pullman body. For the car’s construction, Pullman-Standard used the distinctive Pullman “trapezoid” indentations on the flat side panels, as well as riveted construction. This Tangent model executes all of those details, inside and out. The Quad hopper bays have separate door and door frame detail. The hopper doors themselves are fitted with intricate Wine door locking mechanisms, accurate for these Pullman cars. The B-End of the car has an accurate Ajax high handbrake, Morton brake step and modern brake wheel. Inside, the models have a gorgeous (and removable!) flood-style coal load. These coal cars roll on Tangent 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with separate truck brake beams and rotating “Timken” caps.
