Bluford Shops N 42100 International Car Company Bay Window Caboose Phase II Pittsburgh & Lake Erie 'boxcar red' P&LE #510

Pittsburgh & Lake Erie took delivery of these Phase II bay window cabooses in 1960 in this boxcar red paint scheme despite the fact that parent New York Central System had adopted their Century Green colors and cigar band logo three years before. Had they been built in NYC’s Despatch Shops, they most certainly would have been green but P&LE ordered these cars from International Car and specified the old colors. This road name will be available in 2 road numbers.

Bluford Shops International Car Bay Window Caboose Phase 2 is based on the family of steel bay window cabooses developed by International Car Company beginning in the early 1950s. Over the years the design of the bay windows evolved and each phase features a number of bay window style and other detail variations. This N Scale International Car Window Caboose Phase 2 has a steeper pitch on the bay sides and sloped top bay window. The ready-to-run model features wire grab irons, body mounted magnetically operating knuckle couplers, close coupling and Fox Valley Models metal wheels. Ladders and running boards are included on appropriate paint schemes for each version.
