Well since I model 1995-2005 . . . that sort of works.  It would have to be pretty torn up by then.

Nice model, but would not look right on Tehachapi for 1998-2012.   (except maybe one as a MOW set out on the Walong stub spur, even then I am not sure if UP had them)

Maybe the BNSF 82' Trinity reefers are in the works....  :D   (or maybe I will have to start scratchbuilding from the smaller ones)   :facepalm:

Shot this car almost 3 years ago when I first moved to Spokane, still sitting in the yard last week when I drove by.

So for MoW service, could always get some panel track and strap it to the car.

Hard to believe the BN merger was 44 years ago and yet that car still looks pretty good.

Prr F47. Looks like 25 were built in late '64 and early '65. I'll pick one up!

Why didn't they build them sooner!
Maybe I'll get a wabash flat though as they are nice
