HO Scale

 

 

Prairie Shadows first run of these cars consists of 1980s built cars by NACC and Thrall. These cars featured some iconic billboard schemes such as Wonderbread and Bentonite that lasted well into their lifespans. Prairie Shadows also included some FURX repaints for our modern modelers as these cars are still on the rails today. These cars were designed to haul flour, talc, corn starch, clays, kaolin and other powdered commodities making these a common car on all railroads.

 

The model will feature:

- Multiple car bodies and weld seam variations.

- Multiple roof variations

- Different roof walk support variations

- See-thru etched metal walkways

- Detailed brake rigging and plumbing

- 100 Ton Trucks

- 36” CNC Metal Wheels

- Kadee Scale Couplers

 

Thrall FURX Repaints
Era: 2010+

Prairie Shadows Model Railway Co. know they couldn’t get away with just producing 80s and 90s era schemes on these cars.. so here are the FURX repaints. These cars have a build date of 1989, but were repainted in the 2010s  and feature piss stripes for the modern modeler. First Union has a ton of patch jobs on these cars, but the repaints seemed more fitting for this release.
