Car Sales

From time to time, the Philadelphia Division has models for sale that we think are useful to our local modelers.

As of March 17, 2008 we have a new Division Car. This is a model of the Reading panel side hopper. The model has a number used on the original car. Using the Accurail Panel Side Twin hopper, we lettered the car to reflect the capacities and unique lettering scheme for a panel side hopper.

Price is $15 per car.

Add $7.00 shipping for 1st model, 2 or more models, add $3.00 each. Money orders preferred, checks must clear prior to shipping. Make Money Order payable to Philadelphia Division.

There is an order form in the box for extra numbers from Accurail.

We still have a few of the Hercules Powder Company reefer. The October 1953 Official Railway Equipment Register lists 8 cars in the series 1200-1210. That means that there are cars numbered 1200 and 1210 and that there are 3 missing car numbers between 1201 and 1209, but it doesn't specify which numbers they are.

This is the photo that was used to create the car. Picture of 1205 was taken 9-8-51 in Raleigh, NC. Check out the trucks. I see three trucks in the photo and all three are different!!! Class RB: A bunkerless refrigerator car similar in design to an "RS" car w/ or w/o ventilating devices and w/ or w/o devices for attaching portable heaters. Constructed with a minimum of 3" of insulation in sides and 3.5" on ends and roof ( based on AAR Supplement to Manual Plate C-2).

The Cars are $15 each. Two for $28. Each additional car is $14. Add $7.00 shipping for 1st model, 2 or more models, add $3.00 each. Money orders preferred, checks must clear prior to shipping. Make Money Order payable to Philadelphia Division.
