Description | 518 Koppers Chemical Tank Car Paint Sample |
Category | Paint Sample |
Remarks |
This is a hand lettered car. While clearly a sample of the Koppers Chemical car, it does not bear its eventual number. The other side of the car is black and undecorated. This car uses a Varney style body, but while Varney provided Gilbert with several early car body styles, the painting and decorating was done at Gilbert. (Click here to see production model) |
