ATGX ex-D&H “Modern w/ Conspicuity Stripes” is the “restenciled” (or “banditized,” if you prefer) version of the Delaware and Hudson car we offer. The D&H cars were returned to the lessor and were subsequently placed in lease service starting in 1994. This ATGX car represent the banditized D&H cars in the modern era, complete with conspicuity stripes.

The Tangent PS4750 is a state of the art, dimensionally-accurate scale replica with highly accurate “true-to-life” colors and precise letter stencils.
