About this model
American Car & Foundry built the Type 27 from the late 1920s through the 1940s. It's an insulated, high-pressure car made for loads like chlorine, anhydrous ammonia, propane and butane, and this 6,000-gallon version often ran in chlorine service. Most were privately owned, so they carried their shippers' names.
Virginia Chemical in a billboard scheme, reporting marks VCSX.
This box: two cars with different road numbers. Chlorine was widely used to treat drinking water, so a car like this could be spotted at a waterworks as well as a chemical plant.
Pairs well with
- a UTLX lease car
- the other twelve 2-packs: all thirteen give you 26 different cars
Running a spur? With two cars you can spot one at the plant while the other is out on the road.
Model features
- Scaled from prototype blueprints
- Prototypically accurate paint, color and lettering
