– Detroit & Toledo Shore Line DTS “Delivery Red 11-1963” replicates the gorgeous Detroit & Toledo Shore Line paint scheme as-delivered in 1963. The prototype cars entered service in November of 1963, and feature the 41’ 3” narrow-truck centers with shorter sills. The Tangent model executes these same prototype features along with a beautiful Apex-style running board and high ladders for the era. On the end of the car, you will notice an accurate Ajax power brake and modern brake wheel. The brake step is Morton, while the crossover platforms are Apex-style, matching the D&TS prototypes. The underframe features an accurate Center-Of-Car “Hydra-Cushion” setup with body-mounted brake gear details. The truck brake beams match this body-mounted brake cylinder configuration. This model is equipped with 100-Ton Barber S-2 trucks with rotating Timken caps, just like the prototype. The D&TS “Expressway For Industry” graphics stand out on this model, with all lettering carefully created and executed on this box car. And yes, that includes the one-inch data reminding brakemen that this car has roller bearings and to set the brakes when the car is set out! The model is accurately lettered with a return route/code of 190, for Ford’s Monroe, Michigan Stamping Plant. These models are ready to haul chrome parts, bumpers and more on your layout.
