Tangent Scale Models 34016-02 - “Repaint 6-1979” Thrall 5,880CuFt 60′ Double Plug Door Box Car Milwaukee Road (MILW) 4152 - HO Scale

 Milwaukee Road MILW “Repaint 6-1979”provides a heavily-requested repaint scheme for the late 1970s-early 2000s modelers.  Milwaukee purchased 10 cars in 1969, and by the late 1970s, the MILW’s Milwaukee shops were cycling them through for repainting.  The model is a careful recreation of 1979 Milwaukee Road graphics and data.  This model features Freightmaster End-Of-Car Cushioning, but the Stanray coupler centering device equipment has been removed.  Yes, this matches the prototype photos.  The model has Ajax brake equipment on the B End along with a modern brake wheel and later-era replacement coupler lift bars.  Also present are era-correct single Auxiliary Top Crank arms at the top of each of the plug doors.  This replica is equipped with 100-Ton Barber S-2 trucks with rotating Timken caps.  These are gorgeous Milwaukee Shops repaints!
