The Prototype: - The Pullman-Standard PS-2CD 4000 cubic foot covered hopper was produced between 1962 and 1964, and remained in service throughout the US, Canada, and Mexico until the early 2000s. One of the most distinctive Pullman covered hoppers, this common 100-ton car is used in grain, fertilizer, and other bulk services. BLMA Models is the first manufacturer to offer this unique model in N Scale! With more than 2,000 prototypes placed into service, the BLMA Models N Scale replica is a perfect addition to your layout or collection. Burlingtion Route (CB&Q): - Painted in the characteristic "PPG Carhide Hot Spray Gray" covered hopper color with large "Burlington Route" placard (faithfully reproduced on our model!) and Chinese red "Burlington" and associated lettering. These cars are offered in three individual road numbers. These cars operated throughout the CB&Q system and points beyond, and remained in service for Burlington Northern nationwide into the early 1990's, when they were repainted. The Models: - We're kicking things up a notch! Not only is this model the first PS-4000 ever produced in N Scale, these first-class models feature some innovative features - in fact, a FIRST for N Scale! Along with the fine-scale attention to detail you've come to know from BLMA Models, these models ride on our ALL-NEW 100-Ton ASF Ride Control trucks and ALL-NEW scale profile, metal wheels! Furthermore, these models feature body-mounted Micro-Trains couplers for superb operation!
