Description
Railroad Short Name: SP
The Tangent Pullman-Standard SP Lines “Postwar” 40’6” Box Car is a state of the art, dimensionally-accurate scale replica that was tooled to Pullman-Standard plans and verified with field measurements. The distinctive look of the 40-foot boxcar with 10’0” height and 7-foot door openings is what sets this Tangent model apart from the 40-foot boxcars you already have. Our model comes with highly accurate “true-to-life” colors and “hyper-accurate” lettering including exact stenciling, fonts, and lettering placement. The Tangent PS “Postwar” 40-foot boxcars include appliance variations accurate for specific paint schemes, including different doors, door tracks, side and end ladders, brake systems, handbrake and brake step details, and running boards. Our boxcars include “near-scale” draft sill with beautifully-rendered side “key” detail, plus correct ASF 50-ton A-3 Ride Control trucks. Finally, our scale replicas operate as well as they look, equipped with free-rolling CNC-machined wheels and Kadee® scale couplers, meaning our models are truly ready-to-run.
Southern Pacific (SP) Brown Repaint 1960+ offers a “repainted” Southern Pacific car that is more “modern” for the 1960s/1970s modelers. 1960s modelers need a “mix” of original painted cars and these, but 1970s modelers need these. The details on the car include a Youngstown door, a Morton style running board and brake step, 8 rung side and end ladders, an accurate Equipco handbrake housing, and a Equipco handbrake.
