HR6583D D&RGW RioGrande, Box Car, running number #4
Product Info
| "Through the Rockies, not around them," was the original slogan of the D&RGW- The Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad, featuring a direct route from Denver, Colorado to Salt Lake City, Utah. Big ambitions were expected of this railroad with its construction starting in 1870 and was expected to reach all the way to Mexico via the Rio Grande, but didn't quite make it to the US and Mexico border, it did gain notoriety for its treacherous track through the Rocky Mountains. By the time diesel engines were available, the railroad swiftly changed from steam to diesel as soon as possible as they were more reliable over the steep grades through the mountain range. These boxcars ran regularly from 1955-1975 and could be seen being pulled by 1st and 2nd generation diesel locomotives or late steam. These highly detailed and authentically liveried box cars are made using high-quality construction materials and come equipped with knuckle couplers and metal road wheels, featuring plug doors(stationary). |
