30’ Log Car NEW Log Load P/N: 865 00 020 Still Available

This body style is typical of log cars utilized on narrow gauge railroads across the United States early in the 20th century. This model comes undecorated so the modeler can adapt the car to existing layouts. Included is a custom resin log load complete with scale chain wrappers. We’ve left the log load unattached so the load to be displayed on or off the car. This provides the option of running with or without the load in place. This car comes with our new Arch Bar trucks that allows the side frames to pivot with the irregularities in the track for smooth, reliable operation.

	Colorado & Northwestern Road Number C&N 1024 P/N: 800 00 080
This 30’ box car with single door is painted box car red with white lettering and runs on brown Barber Coleman archbar trucks. It was built about 1900 by Barney & Smith Car Company of Dayton, OH. Two events—the monetary panic of 1893 and a devastating flood in 1894—caused the Union Pacific to decide not to rebuild its Greeley, Salt Lake & Pacific Railroad (GSL&P), which connected Boulder with the precious metal mines in the mountains west of the city. However, the mining and smelting industry was far from dead; so some Eastern Capitalists formed a new company, the Colorado & Northwestern Railway (incorporated in 1897), which would replace the GSL&P, and then extend the tracks to Ward and Endora. The C&N attained instant notoriety when it purchased the very first (narrowgauge) Climax-type three truck locomotive, and the only such engine in Colorado. Click on Photo to see large image.
