CNR 40' Boxcar - True Line Trains - $39.99
CNR Mavens may find something to criticize in these models.
Most normal, discerning hobbyists, however, are likely to consider these among the most finely detailed and finished ready to run boxcars on the market today.
(All they lack are coupler cut bars, air hoses and Sergent couplers to make them super-outstanding representations of the real thing!)
And, TLT's limited, pre-sold run of these models will make them difficult to find after a while.
We have a limited number still in stock:
Red, original paint scheme. [Photo 1] [Photo 2]
Red, White "Serves All Canada" herald. [Photo 1] [Photo 2]
Red, Green "Serves All Canada" herald. [Photo 1] [Photo 2]
For those who, like me, bemoaned the unexplainable absence of cut bars and air hoses on the above, I have done one of each of the above up with coupler cut bars, air hoses. And custom weathering, including brakeman's chalk marks.
These are priced at $59.95 each. [For photos, go to the bottom of the CNR page.]
For those who wish even more exacting detail, I have also done one car with coupler cut bars, air hoses, Rebox wheelsets, Sergent working scale couplers and custom weathering.
Price: $99.95 [For photos, go to the bottom of the CNR page.

CNR/DWC 50' Bulkhead Flat - True Line Trains - $34.99
