These cars were built in 1969 and delivered in Big Sky Blue to GN just prior to the creation of BN. The cars continued to serve BN in GN colors and were finally sold to Greenbrier in 2009 who finally painted out the goat and applied new reporting marks. Most of the 100 cars are still in service.

This model is designed for the modeler to provide the sides and floor made from either .015" styrene or .010" brass as the slight tapered sides may be difficult to print without unacceptable stepping.

Sides Inserts measurement: 8.205" x 1.550"

Floor Insert measurement: 8.205" x 1.180"

Due to printing process, some adjustment to these sizes may be needed. 

Support structure is provided to help in the printing and transport of the ladder details and should be removed along with the temporary cross braces before the car is assembled.
