– Great Northern (GN) “Delivery Gray 2-1960” shows off the classic Great Northern slanted lettering with the red and black “rocky” logo, across a gray-painted body – the correct color of course.  Stenciled “For Food Products Only” these cars served the GN systemwide, as well as successor BN hauling all sorts of commodities, including grains, sand, and fertilizers.  Every piece of data is carefully replicated, something you have come to expect with Tangent.  The models feature correct GN roof details like a see-through Apex-style running board and “Early-style” round roof hatches.  Underneath, the model includes exquisite Enterprise gravity outlet gates, matching this prototype group of 65 cars.  The B-end of the car features all of the brake details and piping of the prototype, including a gorgeous Universal 7400 brake stand, Universal brake wheel, Apex-style brake step, wire piping details and a finely executed Retaining Valve mounted on the end of the carbody.  Metal corner stirrup steps and flexible rubber air hoses on each end of the car provide durability.  Finally, these cars ride on our brand-new 70-Ton ASF A-3 Ride Control Roller Bearing trucks with Timken rotating bearing caps!  They are gorgeous!
