A new run of N scale 60-ft Baggage-Express Cars

A new run of N-scale 60-ft Arched Roof & Harriman Baggage-Express cars is in the works. We think they are worthy of your considerations! Pre-orders are due by April 11th. Anticipated delivery is about late summer 2017.

These N scale cars Arched Roof and Harriman (Common Standard) cars were originally built in the early part of the 20th century and lasted into the 1960s in revenue service. They were found in streamlined passenger trains at the headend, in mail trains, and in mixed freight trains.

This run of 60-ft baggage-express cars are for Canadian National Railways, Delaware Lackawanna & Western, Southern Railway, Illinois Central, Southern Pacific, and Union Pacific railroads. In addition, we like to highlight two cars re-purposed for maintenance-of-way operations: Erie Lackawanna in striking red scheme, and Southern in black. The EL M-o-W car lived on into the Conrail era, while the Southern M-o-W car was on the Norfolk Southern roster before it was retired.

Wheels of Time cars feature precise highly detailed tooling such as underframe details according to the prototype, and Harriman ends or flat car ends. These cars are nicely weighed and equipped with metal wheels for smooth operations. Cars come with 6-wheel or 4-wheel heavyweight trucks as according to the real thing.
