This PTLX group of cars features a Pullman body with open-hole posts, center-tube train air line, and truck mounted brake hardware.  (Notice there is no brake cylinder on the B-End!)  The bays are equipped with beautifully replicated early-style Miner outlet gates.  Up on the roof, you can see that detailed see-though Morton walkway and matching Morton crossover platforms on the ends.  Each and every piece of data on this car is carefully replicated, from one-inch COTS box to the separate “The Andersons” placard art.  The models come equipped our 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with accurate “Timken” rotating caps and correct truck-mounted brake beams.  From the red roof grab irons down to the PTLX reporting marks printed on the draft gear, this paint scheme is winner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"woocommerce-product-gallery woocommerce-product-gallery--with-images woocommerce-product-gallery--columns-4 images\" data-columns=\"4\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrototype Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eThe Pullman-Standard PS-2CD 4750 covered hopper was the largest production covered hopper design in history, and is therefore statistically important to virtually any modeler from the 1970s to the present.
