Notes:
This version has the raised roof panels, which were built after the flat ones. The model features the National Steel Car company's unique ends. There were over 5,700 of these cars made between 1937 and 1946. The kit features a one piece resin casting, laser cut running boards, custom photo etchings, Des Plaines Canadian ladders, and Black Cat decals. Important: the model's body was based on the Pacific Rail Shops body casting, which, unbeknownst to Yarmouth Model Works, is still owned by Des Plaines Hobbies, and so copyright claims halted further sale of this car.
