– GACX “GATX Gray 2-1995” is one of two private lease offerings in this release of Trinity 4750s.  This car is a stunner with its gray paint color and large, bold GATX stencils in the upper right corner of the carbody side.  The GATX’s Trinity 4750s include the “bolt on” outlet gate design, along with gravity gates.  Up on the roof of the cars you will find an unpainted galvanized “slope up” Morton-design running boards and the galvanized steel trough hatches that Trinity applied are replicated on our model.  The ends of the cars include straight-handle coupler lift bars, separate brake wheel, etch metal Morton crossover platforms, and flexible rubber trainline air hoses! GATX initially leased a total of 200 Trinity 4750s, all built in 1995, although they picked up more Trinity cars in later years, which we offer as models as well.  These stunners are now available, and photos show them all over North America, including in Canada and Mexico.
