Road #C.P. 276932 40' Despatch Stock Car Part #MTL-35050 N Scale Supply Price: New Release Date: October 2001
Quebec Central Railway, an old subsidiary of Canadian Pacific, built this 40 despatch stock car in the 1910s. The class SM livestock-hauler was part of the QC fleet. In 1912, the CP signed a 999-year lease, making the QC a part of their rail network. Fifty years later, in August 1962, at the Weston shops in Winnipeg, the car was serviced, reweighed, renumbered from 2266 to C.P. 276932, and repainted in this CP scheme of box car red with white lettering. It weighed in at 2,448 cu ft, 90,000 lb capacity. Its original archbar trucks were left on it. Back to N Scale Supply catalog page for: Micro-Trains® 35000 Series |
