Lantic Sugar HO and O Scale PS-2 Hoppers Lettered with Walthers Decals |
Lantic Sugar had a refinery in Saint John, N.B. Canada,which was closed in the past few years. The owner of this O Scale car states the decals are actually for the Airslide Hopper operated by the firm. Note the name lettering is in a different font than shown in Bill Linley's photo on the other page. I am looking for HO and/or O scale decals similar to these sets. |
AHM or IHC offered this HO scale hopper car some time ago as a track cleaning car. I acquired this one from Lupo Mulder in the Netherlands, who saw my request on this page - Thank you! Note the European style couplers. I later acquired a similar car with Kadee couplers. The HO scale car was donated by Wayne Marshall of Guelph, Ontario - Thanks!. He got in in a collection from a friend. It' an AHM car, apparently lettered with the older Walthers decals. |
The larger car in HO scale is a 2009 release by Con-Cor, the smaller one is in N scale and was made by Atlas; it was a gift from Wayne Marshall. Note the difference in the gray color of the car. I'm told they should be yellow like those in the above photo. |
