– Milwaukee Road (MILW) “Delivery 3-61” w/ Superior Door 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 Superior 9’ sliding doors on them, which we represent accurately with our models. 

Please note: this car looks different from the cars we released in 2021, since the door is completely different – changing the car’s overall appearance!  These cars have Ajax handbrakes and brakewheels installed.  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 the Tangent Scale Models 50-Ton Barber S-2 Roller Bearing truck – with rotating “Timken” bearing caps!
