CN&W/Omaha Road PS-1 boxcar
Here we have a CN&W/Omaha Road PS-1 boxcar that was made from an older Athearn Kit found at a local model train show. This boxcar was made from several photographs I have discovered over the years. The Omaha Road (CMO) was a long time subsidiary of the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad. They had several boxcars and other freight cars lettered for the Omaha Road. Since I have been modeling the C&NW, I chose to have some Omaha Road (CMO) freight cars on my layout. This boxcar has details such as air hoses, cut levers, and complete brake system. I used several detail parts from Selley Custom Finishes, Keil-Line, Walthers, and Scale City Designs. The trucks are Pecos Valley Brass and the car is to operate on my 3-rail Proto Hi-Rail layout. Thanks for following our blog and hope you like the car.
Have a Merry Christmas.
Bill
