Detroit Toledo & Ironton (DTI) “Delivery 1970 Magenta” shows off one of the most-requested paint schemes for the Tangent Greenville 86’ Box Car System. We appreciate the patience of DT&I modelers, as we wanted to get this car right with the correct 1970 Greenville body with accurate DT&I Magenta paint and lettering. This Magenta DT&I group totaled 54 cars — It was also the first group to be delivered for use in the new Ford Brownstown Parts Distribution facility pool. Yes, these cars were pooled, so that means these beautiful Magenta 86’ giants served Ford US Parts Depots coast to coast in the Ford BRO pool lanes. Note the prototype photo on our website that shows a DT&I “BRO” car behind a GN painted, BN-restenciled SD45 presumably photographed on BN headed to Seattle. The DT&I cars feature the distinctive Brownstown body style, with extra vertical rivet rows at the ends of the side sheets. An accurate End-Of-Car Cushioning underframe shows off the 100-Ton “Low profile” Barber S-2-A trucks, 36” wheels and “Timken” rotating caps.
