Illinois Central 40’ Orange Hy-Cube Boxcar
The Illinois Central took delivery of 30 40’ Orange Hy-Cube Boxcars in 1967. Numbered in the 15450-15479 series, they were part of Pullman Standard lot #9264 and 9264A. These cars were typically used in appliance service. (For example, in captive service at the Whirlpool Plant in Evansville, Indiana)
This decal set includes all of the data you need to decal one car. It is designed to fit the HO Scale Pullman Standard 40’ Baby Hy-Cube Boxcar by Hi-Tech Details (kit #7000). This set is very detailed, and has everything from the PS1 builder stencil to the assignment stencil for Evansville. (N Scale modelers can start with a 40’ Hy-Cube car by Bachmann) All you need to supply is an ACI label and COTS lettering, if it is appropriate for your era.
This set is printed in black, white and yellow. A decal diagram is included. A prototype photo and plans for the car appeared in the July 1989 Model Railroader Magazine. A nice shot of IC 15474 can be found on RailcarPhotos.com by clicking here.
Cost: $6.00 per set.
