Notes:

This is a dedicated express milk, run in passenger trains. These models were imported by Overland Models for River Raisin Models. The models were factory-painted green. The box included ten private road name decals. The small loading doors are sprung. The model included the correct Barber S-1-L-P high-speed trucks. One additional model was imported that was unpainted. In the real world, these cars contained two insulated tanks inside, much like the Linde gas tanks inside a standard box car.

Shown is the model as it arrived from the factory.
