Tangent Scale Models HO 25032-02 Greenville 86' Double Plug Door Box Car 'Delivery 1964' Pennsylvania Railroad PRR #110047

Pennsylvania Railroad, PRR X60B ‘Delivery 1964’ 1965+ Era is when PRR purchased a large group of 145 cars prior to the PC merger.  Painted in the characteristic PRR freight car red colors with large PRR keystone and gold ‘Cushioned Load’ stenciling. The PRR prototype car was modified in 1965, with the removal of the roof running board, the lowering of the Miner brake wheel housing and removal of high grab irons and end ladders.  Details of these ‘remnants’ are replicated on the sides and ends of the model with roof features of the old bolt locations of the running board supports.  70T Trucks with 33” wheels and rotating ‘Timken’ roller bearing caps finish off this X60B offering, which any PRR/PC/CR modeler doing prior to about 1985 will want. Available in six different road numbers.

The Tangent Greenville 86’ High Cube Double Plug Door Box Car system is a state of the art, dimensionally-accurate scale replica that was tooled to Greenville Steel Car plans and verified with field measurements.
