Tangent Scale Models HO 60410-12 ICC Rock Island Bay Window Caboose Rock Island 'Delivery 12-1967' w/ Red-Green Lights RI #17181

Rock Island RI 'Delivery 12-1967' w/ Red-Green Lights replicates the large 1967 order of cabooses in their as-built classic red, yellow and black.  This 1967 ICC group was the largest delivered to the railroad, 75 total.  RI’s paint jobs are not easy, so there is lots of careful masking and color separations on the model to mimic the prototype.  The yellow faces on the bay-windows are a great detail with that reflective red striping.  The RI lettering is distinctive and classy due to its block style – this is something RI fans will immediately notice when done correctly.  Notice the “POOL” notation on the bay window for this road caboose, reminding everyone that this caboose served the RI system-wide road pool.  The models are equipped with a beautiful see-through Apex running board.  The roof is packed with details like vents, a nicely detailed smokejack, a sturdy antenna for the radio equipment and the classic RI tripod lights.  Underneath, the model features a Waugh cushion underframe with complete brake gear and piping details.  It’s all there, from the toilet dump pipe to the battery box to the pivoting release rod for the AB Valve.  The model rides on Tangent’s gorgeous 70-Ton Barber Roller Bearing trucks with 33″ standard .110” tread CNC wheels.  For lighting, this Tangent RI model is equipped with prototypical red-green roof tripod marker lights and “golden” interior lights, mimicking the incandescent bulbs of the real cabooses.  A wand is included to operate the lights – easy with no fuss!  Extra parts are included to model the metal flag paddles/flag holders on the body corners.
