Tangent Scale Models HO 29012-04 Gunderson 6089 50' High Cube Box Car, Denver and Rio Grande Western #62013

Denver & Rio Grande (D&RGW) "Delivery 1969" is an exciting release for us. The distinctive D&RGW "Grande Gold" orange paint coupled with black ends and carefully added roof overspray makes a model that is simply stunning. The prototype "Rio Grande" graphics were carefully fitted to the available 7 panels of space to the right of the doors. The white paint at the tops of the ends reminds you that this is a "high-cube" car. The Rio Grande cars feature truck mounted brake details, faithfully replicated with accurate truck-mounted brake beam details and no body-mounted brake cylinder on the Hydra-Cushion underframe. The Tangent D&RGW model also features accurate "unpainted" Morton style crossover platforms, early "5-board" large tack boards on the sides and ends and an Ajax handbrake. Don't forget to check out those accurate "Hyatt" rotating roller bearing caps on the 70-ton "Birdsboro foundry" Barber S-2 trucks!
