HO scale C&NW AAR boxcar kit
Between 1965 and 1967, the C&NW purchased nearly 1200 boxcars secondhand from the P&LE. The later series pur- chased (under AFE 85570) had been built by Pullman Stan- dard at their McKees Rocks PA facility during 1941 and were sold to the C&NW in March 1967. Most went through the C&NW’s Clinton IA shop, receiving the then standard outline “Railway” herald in the yellow “codit” style lettering. These re- mained on the roster until 1981. This HO Accurail kit is avail- able in 2 different numbers. Kit includes Accurail trucks and Accumate couplers. $19.00 ea. plus $7 per order shipping.
