Dear HO Scale Customers;

Tangent Scale Models has announced the Pullman-Standard PS-2 4427 “High Side” Covered Hoppers

– Canadian Pacific CPAA “NA Delivery 1-1970” shows as-delivered gray cars leased from North American Car Corporation to Canadian Pacific. These cars feature the distinctive NAHX Roman-style data lettering that also carries over to the CPAA reporting marks and numbers. The North American Car black/white/red badge down along the sill provides a tiny bit of color to this gray lease scheme. The models come equipped with Youngstown EZ-Roll gravity gates and Apex-style end crossover platforms. With a 1970 build date, these Pullman-Standard lot cars leased to NAHX include center sill supports between the bays and open-style end running board supports. The finely printed capacity data and internal liner data varies between each car number. And yes, don’t worry, these NAHX cars have their accurate serial number stencils along the centersill of the car on each side. Black 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with accurate (and rotating!) Timken caps finish the model.

– Milwaukee Road MILW “Delivery 3-1967” wears the classic yellow and black graphics as applied to this 300-car order from Pullman-Standard in 1967. Tangent’s previous run from 2018 featured Milwaukee’s 1968 order of cars with gravity-pneumatic outlet gates. Tangent Scale Models have carefully replicated the lettering on every panel, bay and center sill from bold MILWAUKEE ROAD to the tiniest PS lot 9174 stencil number. All of the lettering is present and accurate. These cars feature Miner gravity gates and a PS ribbed-style roof hatch. The model also features 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with rotating Timken caps. Each SKU number varies with CAPY, liner stencil and related Pullan date information. Tangent Scale Models hear you Milwaukee Road modelers, and your continued requests for more MILW Tangent covered hoppers in Tangent Scale Models correct shade of Federal Yellow!

– BN “Logoless Repaint 1988” wears the ultra-simplified BN paint scheme as applied in 1988. If you were trackside in this era, you recall the BN and its variations of simplified Cascade green. This scheme is rather distinctive, with the removal of the big BN logo on the right side of the car. The model features center sill supports between the bays, solid end running board supports and replacement Morton-style crossover platforms. The CAPY and LT WT lines are missing on the car side, correct for this 1988 era. The spartan BN stencil data is carefully replicated on this car, from the truck reporting marks to the warranty stencil on the car side covering the replacement fiberglass covers on the roof. The model is equipped with 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with body-mounted brake beams and rotating Brenco-3 caps. This is a great example of late 1980s railroading.

– Texas & Pacific TP “Delivery Gray 5-1971” replicates the as-delivered gray of a huge TP order for 500 cars. The prototype cars are late Pullman-Standard 4427 production, so that means they have the 2-step corner stirrups, jacking pads above the trucks and no center sill supports between the bays. These features have been carefully executed on the model. The models are equipped with accurate Keystone Portloc gravity outlet gates along with an Apex running board and end crossover platforms. The TP lettering follows the MP graphics style of the era. TP/MP lettering is distinctive in its “look” and deserves this careful attention in HO. Equipped with gray 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with body-mounted brake beams and rotating Hyatt caps, these TP covered hoppers are sharp.

 

During the 1960s, railcar builders experimented with covered hopper designs to satisfy the evolving needs of shippers as they moved away from forty-foot box cars to bulk transport railcars. Pullman’s PS-2 design evolution continued in 1966 when the “Low Side” 4427 was replaced with the “High Side” version. The 4427 “High Side” was visually distinctive with its high slope bays and center of gravity, which sped the unloading process of bulk commodities. The “High Side” 4427 included 13 exterior side posts, similar to its sister car design, the PS-2 4740, which had 16 side posts. Both designs were introduced in 1966, and 4427 “High Side” production ended in 1971 after delivery of approximately 12,000 cars.

 

The Tangent Scale Models PS4427 “High Side” is a dimensionally-accurate replica of the real car and provides continuity with their other Pullman-Standard covered hoppers, including model design, scheme colors, and stenciling. Tangent Scale Models model includes key build variations: stirrup steps, roof hatches, jacking pads, tow loops, discharge gates, and side air lines. This replica includes Tangent Scale Models “near-scale” draft gear box including side “key” detail. Tangent Scale Models ready-to-operate replica is finished with coupler lift bars accompanying Kadee scale couplers, sufficient hidden weights, and CNC-machined wheels to ensure the model operates as good as it looks.
