HO CNR Single Sheathed Center Cupola Flanger

This is an HO scale kit for the Canadian National Railways center cupola, single sheathed Diamond Road Flanger.

These cars were built at the CNR's Moncton Shops between 1926 and 1938:

56262, 56265, built Moncton 1926

56291, 56292, 56295, 56296, built Moncton 1928

56303, built Moncton 1931

56304-56307, built Moncton 1930

56310, 56311, built Moncton 1931

56455-56459, built Moncton 1938

The 56278-56280 series, built Moncton were double sheathed with the high windows like the rest of these cars. For these three cars, we have another kit: https://www.shapeways.com/product/UHRENK97A/ .

This kit includes the special diamond flanger blade, stirrup steps, wind deflectors for the cupola, brake cylinders and handbrake wheels, and a choice of smoke jacks for coal or oil fired stoves (H shape for oil). Extras of the stirrup steps and brake wheels are included.

The kit is available in either FUD or FXD acrylics... FXD yields the highest quality, while FUD offers great quality at a lower price. The builder will provide trucks, couplers, screws, paint, and lettering.
