ExactRail N Scale: P-S 5277 Waffle Boxcar - Southern - '1984 Europa Repaint'

             
In 1974, the Southern Railway took delivery of 70 ton, 5277 cubic foot capacity box cars from Pullman-Standard. Different from the majority of other cars of the IPD era, the Southern cars had a full set of "waffles"--stamped impressions into the car's side panels which were intended to accommodate lading equipment. Beginning with P-S lot 9725, Southern Railway would eventually roster nearly 5,000 of these box cars. Found anywhere, the Southern P-S 50' 'Waffle' Box Car is the epitome of a signature classic!                        
ExactRail recreates the P-S 50' 'Waffle' Box Car with our team who designs, engineers and tools in the United States! Available only in accurate paint schemes with exceptionally accurate lettering and logotypes, ExactRail's N-scale P-S 50' 'Waffle' is a highly authentic replica with a host of exclusive features.            
             
About the Southern 1984 Europa Repaint Paint Scheme:
             
In January of 1984, the Norfolk Southern Corporation began repainting Southern Railway Pullman-Standard 5277 “Waffle” Boxcars in a new paint scheme. The Southern Railway called this the “Europa” paint scheme. If you model post-1984, this paint scheme would look great interspersed among our other Southern waffle boxcars!
