The N-5 was the world's first all steel cabin car. Produced in 1914 by Lines East these cars were equipped with archbar, leaf spring trucks and small tool boxes under their sides. While it was referred to as a center cupola, the N-5 cupola was actually 12 1\/2 off center. It had a brake lever on each end of the platform instead of the brake wheel. Over the years some changes occured. The top lights and tool boxes were removed, Ajax brake wheels replaced the brake levers, AB brakes replaced the K style, and coil spring trucks were replaced by leaf spring trucks. New end sills, collision posts and new end railings were added. The stove and chimney were moved from the end of the car closer to the cupola. There were a total of 616 cars built in this era. Antenna support system not included. (Drill spots for locating antenna system supports are molded into underside of roof).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCircle Keystone Lettering was applied starting in Jan 1930\u003cbr\u003eShadow Keystone lettering was applied starting in June 1954\u003cbr\u003ePlain Keystone was applied starting in July 1956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts key features are:\u003cbr\u003eOne piece plastic molded body\u003cbr\u003eOne piece plastic molded roof\u003cbr\u003eBrake wheel\u003cbr\u003eAir reservoir\u003cbr\u003eBrake cylinder\u003cbr\u003eControl valve\u003cbr\u003eX2f couplers\u003cbr\u003ePlastic trucks\/wheels\u003cbr\u003eSteel car weights\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.
