BNSF “Large Swoosh 2005” complements our BN car offering in this run of Trinity 4750s, for those that model BNSF in the conspicuity era. This car is a stunner with its BNSF oxide red paint color, the large and bold BNSF swoosh logo on the right side of the carbody, and the conspicuity stripe markings alongside the model. This paint scheme includes some neat little details like the white paint details on the ends and steps. These cars are former BN Trinity 4750s built in 1994. These cars are equipped with the “bolt on” outlet gate design that was found on some of the Trinity 4750 prototypes. Up on the roof of the cars is a carbody red painted galvanized “slope up” Morton-design running board, and the fiberglass trough hatches that BNSF applied are replicated on our model. The ends of the cars include straight-handle coupler lift bars, separate brake wheel, etch metal Morton crossover platforms, and flexible rubber trainline air hoses. These stunners are now available. Don’t miss out, these will go quickly.

Prototype History:
Following nine years of continuous production, the Pullman-Standard 4750cf covered hopper was the largest mass-produced covered hopper design in North American railcar history. After Pullman-Standard’s demise in 1981, Trinity Industries acquired the design and production rights for the “Pullman-version” of the 4750 design (which killed Trinity’s own 4750 from the catalog). Shippers wanted the “Pullman-design” 4750 to be offered again. Produced between 1988 and 1995, Trinity produced the “Pullman-design” 4750 and met customer needs for this popular covered hopper. During that production period, Trinity made a series of refinements to the design. Many Class I railroads purchased the Trinity 4750, with BN, UP, and CSX ordering them in the thousands. Trinity 4750 cars continue to serve Class I, short line, and in lessee services today, hauling grains, fertilizer, salt, and other bulk commodities.
