– Norfolk Southern NS “NW Claytor Paintout 1998+” replicates a specific Norfolk Southern patch of a former NW Claytor Repaint B-120 box car.  The NW graphics have been painted out by NS with fresh paint.  And they also applied a significant amount of touch up brown patches as needed across the side.  This makes for a distinctive-looking car on any NS train 1998+!  Replacement Morton end crossover platforms, yellow door hook catch hardware, as well as the auxiliary door crank parts are all present on our model to show how Tangent goes the extra mile with our car detailing.  This model features Freightmaster End-Of-Car Cushioning, but the Stanray coupler centering device equipment has been removed. Yes, this matches the prototype photos!  Check out the NW’s signature Equipco 3750 handbrake on the B-End of the car.  Underneath, you can spot those gorgeous Tangent 100-Ton Barber S-2 trucks with rotating Timken caps.
