Colorado and Southern Athearn Boxcar

Here we have a rebuilt Athearn Boxcar that is lettered for the Colorado and Southern subsidiary of the Burlington. This boxcar was another car found at a train show that was in bad shape.  It was stripped to the bare metal and repainted as a C&S car with grain boards added for service in grain loadings.   The decals are Champion and the paint is Floquil Boxcar Red.  I have added detail items such as cut levers, air hoses, and a complete brake system to the bottom of the car.  This car will run on my Proto Hi-rail layout.  Hope you like it.  Bill
