Reminds me of the BLI stock car.

I wonder if the waffles can be printed on the sides like Archer does with their decals.

Wait - this is a PS commemorative boxcar on an FMC model?!?

Remember Trainworx "WoodPacker" boxcars with applied waffles?

Probably, its the only exterior post tooling car they have.

Looks like the body dimensions are accurate, rather than being based on the present 50’ boxcar dimensions.

@thomasjmdavis

Thanks.  That probably means the other 2 are accurate as well.

Was the roof for this car really an X panel and not the typical PS type? It may be a just an error in the promotional drawings? It would be a big deal if MT tooled a proper PS exterior post boxcar.

See the photos at the links in mu26aeh post up above.

Thanks! Thought I had clicked on the 2nd one, but the prototype car had a typical PS bowtie roof.
