Those of you familiar with my US outline blogs will know of my liking, nay love, for Exactrail models. Today another one arrived by mail. (I'd like to say arrived in my mailbox but the mail person had just thrown the package on the driveway) . In the package was a NS waffle sided boxcar. I desperately wanted the Southern Railroad version but so, it seems did everyone else, and there is nary one to be found except by paying over the odds on fleabay. So I settled for the NS version.
It is one of the Signature series of models, top of the range and what a gorgeous model it is. Take a look.
Below: The lettering is really tiny and very legible
Above: The end detailing features coupler cut rods and air hoses
Above: More stunning detail.If I have one criticism of the model it is that the door is moulded as a part of the body and not separately applied as on the Railbox perhaps's that's a production issue. The door actually fooled me as to me it looked as if it might open.
Another great model from Exactrail
Wow, nice looking model! I am going to have to give ExactRail a try.
