The Tangent Scale Models HO Scale Midwest Railcar Corporation MWCX #462020 PS4750 Covered Hopper captures a distinctive modern-era lease car with a long and visibly patched service history. Representing a former PTLX car operating for Midwest Railcar Corporation, this Pullman-Standard PS-2CD 4750 is modeled in its 2013+ MWCX “Roland & Nevada” appearance, making it an excellent addition to contemporary freight operations.
MWCX #462020 stands out with its weathered blue body, patched reporting marks and data, and weathered and peeling “RN” Roland & Nevada logo panel. Tangent based the model on a 2013 prototype appearance that notably lacked conspicuity striping, a detail accurately carried over to the model. Weathered unpainted-metal roof walkways and replacement roof hatches further recreate the appearance of a hard-working lease car rather than a freshly painted freight car.
