Pullman-Standard 86' auto parts double-door boxcar assembled. Southern Railway (boxcar red, silver, super cushion service slogans). Southern received these cars from Pullman Standard in the Summer of 1966 in this paint scheme. This group was initially assigned for loading at Ford’s stamping plant on the N\u0026amp;W (previously Wabash) in Buffalo, New York (note the “BUFF” below the road number.) Southern’s inclusion in this multi-railroad pool of cars was based on having a Ford assembly plant on their line in Georgia. However, Southern cars in this pool could move stampings from the Buffalo plant to any Ford plant anywhere in the country as demand required. This is typical of how auto-parts car pools operated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts key features are:\u003cbr\u003eFine paint and lettering\u003cbr\u003eSwinging drawbar system with Accumate® knuckle couplers that allows operation on sharp layout curves\u003cbr\u003eEtched-metal coupler walkovers and end railings for extra authenticity\u003cbr\u003eInjection molded plastic bodies\u003cbr\u003eMetal etched details\u003cbr\u003eAccurately appreading trucks and cushion draft enclosures draft gear enclosures\u003cbr\u003eOperates on 11 radius curves as delivered but come with a lift kit for operation on even tighter curves\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory New (\u003ca href=\"#\" title=\"C-9: All original; unused; factory rubs and evidence of handling, shipping and factory test run.
