Illinois Central (IC) “Delivery 2-1970” is a hot car, no matter how you look at it. That orange paint
coupled with the sharp black and white split-rail logo is one of the most iconic schemes for that era. The IC cars feature their as-built 1970 appearance that includes Gypsum crossover platforms, Ajax brake hand brake housing, Greenville-applied tack board locations and that beautiful End-of-Car Cushioning underframe setup. The paint, lettering and graphics are truly “Tangent Accurate” from the large, centered “Illinois Central” lettering down to the distinctive IC-style dotted return route box with instructions to send the car back to the GTW in Flint, Michigan. 70-Ton Trucks with 33” wheels and rotating “Timken” roller bearing caps finish off this “Mainline of Mid-America” offering. Our IC masterpieces are available in four different numbers.
