Utah Central Railway - '2017 As-Delivered'
About the Paint Scheme:
Being a Utah based company, we couldn't pass up on producing a car from a local road. The Utah Central Railway is a shortline in Ogden, UT and is owned by the Patriot Rail Company. In 2017 Patriot Rail acquired 230, of the 6276 cubic foot boxcars that were built at the Gunderson Concarril plant in Mexico in 2017. These cars are in service all over North America and need to be added to your modern layout.History:
The Trinity 6275 Boxcar has been one of ExactRail's most popular freight cars. This boxcar has a very limited paint schemes list, but there are many 'very-close' freight cars with more varied paint schemes that we are excited to have worked with ExactRail to manufacture. These 'very-close' or brothers from other mothers freight cars are built by companies such as Johnstown America, Gunderson & National Steel Car. Some were built by Trinity but have a slightly different sized door than the 12 footer we have, or have exterior post placement variations.

About TrainLife Exclusive Freight cars:
ExactRail's dedication to accuracy means that they don't very often use 'stand in' tooling for projects that are close to a certain freight car (some people call these 'foobies'). We know that there are many holes in the modeling world and many people that are happy to have a stand in model so long as it represents something close to the real thing. We've worked closely with ExactRail to create close 'stand in' models to fill these holes.
