![]() This 50' standard box car with Youngstown door wears two of the experimental paint schemes, each side similar with the colors reversed. The shape used here is a diagonal 'chevron' shape across each side, adorned with the Chessie kitten. Lettering is in yellow and blue. This car, second of six in the 'Cameo Car Series,' was built in May 1956 by Pullman Standard
and serviced in May 1956. It runs on roller bearing trucks. All of the Cameo Series car designs feature varying widths of
yellow striping along with monograms and the recently adopted "Futura Demi-Bold" font. Five of the six cars received two
different schemes per side. These "Cameo" schemes were intended to promote Chessie's (LCL) less-than-carload service. #031 00 072...$35.65 |
