Union Pacific (UP) “Bicentennial CH-100-28 1974” gives the patient Union Pacific modelers some love. Many of you have asked for us “to do the UP Bicentennial car” so – here it is! Union Pacific rostered eight groups of Pullman 4750s, and the Bicentennial car was one of the cars in the 1000-car order for lot CH-100-28. The Bicentennial car was produced when Pullman was transitioning from the combination closed-hole/open-hole side posts to only open side posts – a transition that occurred in this order of 1000 cars. The cars also include three distinctive appliances that make these Tangent models stand out from generic models: UP-specific corner steps – with the distinctive angle, bolted outlet gate flanges, and Landreth style roof hatches, with their distinctive zig-zag rib pattern. Check out those see-through Morton roof walkways and matching end crossover platforms. The models come equipped with body-mounted brake hardware and our 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with rotating caps. Tangent’s execution of this gorgeous UP paint job is simply unmatched, created with care and accuracy down to the stencil marks are one-inch COTS panel lettering. Check out the beautiful paint separations in between the blue bar, the red and white stripes, the black underframe, and the white ends. We are pleased to offer this accurate UP model, unlike any other PS4750 we’ve produced to date!

Just in time for America’s 250th anniversary is the Tangent June 2026 release! This month, Tangent Scale Models is excited to begin selling an HO scale replica of the one of a kind, HO scale Union Pacific Bicentennial-painted Pullman-Standard 4750 Covered Hopper! Dimensional accuracy – designed from Pullman-Standard plans and verified with field measurements

The prototype UP Bicentennial PS4750 was a special paint job applied by Pullman-Standard to a run of the mill Pullman-Standard PS-2CD 4750 in 1974. The car, wearing road number 74444, was painted in a US-flag-like scheme that included red and white stripes and a blue band at the top. The car was put on display in several public forums in the 1974-1976 period.

A quick synopsis of our PS4750 and our railroad-specific detail variations include:

• Dimensional accuracy – designed from Pullman-Standard plans and verified with field measurements
• Highly correct “true to life” colors
• “Hyper-Accurate” lettering including exact fonts and lettering placement
• Genuine Kadee scale couplers
• “Near-scale” draft gear box with beautifully-rendered side “key” detail
• Multiple road numbers for each scheme
• “See through” etched metal running boards and crossover platforms (in 6 possible combinations)
• Road-specific details for each scheme, including many carbody variations, 7 different brake systems, 3 different outlet gates, 3 different sets of roof hatches, 4 jacking pad sets, with or without shaker brackets, 2 roof overhangs, 3 different running board and crossover platform options, end ladders options, 7 brakewheel housing and clevis options, and 2 brakewheel options.
• Beautiful details – wire grab irons and coupler lift bars – no “molded in” plastic grab irons here!
• Separate air hoses
• CNC-machined 36” wheels
• Our precision Tangent Scale Models 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks or 100-Ton Barber S-2 Roller Bearing Truck with Stucki HS-7 Snubbers – each with prototype-specific rotating bearing caps (four possible options!) and separate brake beam part (2 possible options!)
• Recommended age 14 years and older
