Description
 
Whether you have a fledgling or well-established HOn3 railroad, you are going to need to be able to haul coal, rock and precious minerals by the ton! OK, maybe by the ounce. Blackstone Models has just the car for you.

Between 1898 and 1906, the D&RGW purchased approximately 1300 narrow gauge gondolas from American Car & Foundry. These new cars replaced an array of well-used and worn out gondolas and became the mainstay of the railroad's gondola fleet toward the end of operations. In addition to coal, these cars often handled limestone, precious minerals, pipe, maintenance equipment, and an array of other commodities as the need arose. Most of these cars were rebuilt in the early 1920's and ended up with five sideboards to increase their capacity. Blackstone Models HOn3 High Side Gondolas represent these cars after rebuilding and will be equipped with the cast "economy" draft gear, varying paint shades, unique detailing and optional weathering.
 
Features
  • 'more sun-faded' Paint
  • Light Weathering
  • Combination of plastic and die-cast parts to create a thoughtfully weighted and balanced car
