Southern Pacific G-70-12, "original 1953 scheme" SP Freight Car Red, 3 NEW road numbers available (additional road numbers to the cars from previous releases).

The 52-6 welded 70-ton drop-end gondola car as produced by ACF is the third all-new model in our HO scale product line.   First produced in 1948 for Pennsylvania Railroad as class G31, PRR alone purchased 11,600 welded cars of this body style in the G31/G31A/G31B/G35, serving the “Standard Railroad of the World” in every corner of North America in many customer applications.   If you model somewhere in North America, you can use a PRR model!   Besides PRR, other railroads also purchased these gondolas from ACF, and some former PRR cars were purchased second-hand by various railroads.   Most of these gondolas were phased from revenue service during the 1990s.
