Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy (CB&Q) -Original 1-1969- is our first Greenville 86ft auto parts offering for any of the -Hill Lines.- CB&Q was the only Hill Line railroad to take delivery of auto parts cars, and this release represents the first of CB&Qs two orders of Greenville prototypes. Delivered in 1969 when the BN merger plan called for green car deliveries, these cars had their pre-merger paint scheme, complete with large -Burlington- lettering. For return route stenciling, these cars state -When Empty Return To GTW RR Pontiac MICH- on the side. For additional context for how far and wide these cars traveled, these cars served into Canada. The car side has one and a half inch stenciling stating -This Car Too High To Clear St. Clair Tunnel Port Huron Michigan.- This warning lettering varied from car to car, and we have duplicated this with car-number specific and car-side specific placement of St. Clair tunnel stenciling! The CB&Q cars feature 100-Ton -Low Profile- Barber S-2-C Roller Bearing Trucks, with 36inch wheels, complete with accurate Hyatt rotating caps. These models are ready to operate with four different road numbers!
