– Baltimore & Ohio (B&O) “Delivery 1-1970 Blue” is a big paint scheme for the Greenville 86’ Quad Door box car. The B&O ordered a total of 98 cars delivered across the December 1969-January 1970 period. The B&O script lettering and Capitol Dome Logos are nothing short of classy on this car, with accurate dark blue paint, unpainted (“silver”) doors and white corner “Excess Height” paint. These cars were part of the GM Stamping pool out of Flint, Michigan on the GTW. These 1970 cars have truck-mounted brake gear, accurate Ajax hand brake, End-of-Car Cushioning components and Gypsum crossover platforms, just like the prototype. Riding on accurate Barber S-2 Birdsboro Foundry trucks with 33” wheels and rotating “Timken” roller bearing caps, our B&O “Delivery 1-1970 Blue” models are ready to operate!
