HO 86ft Greenville High Cube Double Plug Door Boxcar: Mississippi Delta (Ex-AA, 1992+) #192122

From Tangent Scale Models:
Mississippi Delta Railroad (MSDR) “Ex-AA Patch 1992+” moves the “hot potato” story of the ex-Ann Arbor 86’ box cars into the 1990s. MSDR assumed the lease of the ex-Ann Arbor cars in 1994 from a failing Indiana Hi-Rail Corporation. The cars were patched again with new MSDR reporting marks and numbers, but still served in the Ford parts pool doing exactly what they were designed to do: carry auto parts. The Tangent MSDR model shows the little details of the 1990s, including patched out IHRC logos, CAPY data and newly-applied door inspection dates. The end crossover platforms have also been replaced to a Morton style.
