Milwaukee Road (MILW) “Original 3-1961” illustrates our newest exact replica for the Milwaukee Road modeler. Delivered in Milwaukee Road’s standard box car red color, the 9’ door PS-1 was a large example fleet car utilized for many different services, similar to the “ribside” fleet but more useful in the 1960s and onward due to the larger door arrangement. This portion of the Milwaukee Road car order had Camel/Youngstown 9’ sliding doors on them, which we represent beautifully with our models. These cars have Ajax handbrakes and wheels on them. The Milwaukee Road PS-1 9’ door cars include the large, classic “Milwaukee Road” stenciled herald in white on the left side of the car, with the Milwaukee Road herald located on the right side of the car. The roof was left unpainted (galvanized) but includes red overspray, just like the prototype did. This new model rides on another all-new truck for Tangent Scale Models, the 50-Ton Barber S-2 Roller Bearing truck – with rotating “Timken” bearing caps! Our Milwaukee Road model is offered with 12 road numbers.
