New York Central

Roadnumbers: NYC # 885905, 885938

After WWII, American Car and Foundry (ACF) designed a tank-type "Center Flow" covered hopper car to carry "modern" products. Here was a "Freight Car for the Future," ready to transport sugar, cement, sand, salt, fertilizers, many types of grains, coke, starch, feeds, chemicals and plastics! 

Almost twenty years ago Full Throttle  offered it's first Cylindrical Hoppers, a nifty covered Rail Car seen throughout the country in the last half of the 20th century, and even today!  This month,  July '22 , we're offering an updated NEW YORK CENTRAL car.  All sorts of motive power have been released in Z Scale for NYC in the last twenty years, and I have reworked the graphics on the car.  Many of you have those wonderful F3's and F7's as well as the older hood units with NYC liveries and here's the chance to add on to your rosters with the correct era cars! 

These models have been equipped with our Full Throttle  couplers, trucks and metal wheelsets.  The 2-pk. carries two new unique Reporting Numbers!
