Tangent Scale Models 60028-01 HO Scale ICC B&O I-18 Caboose Chessie System (Raceland 1979+) B&O C-30

Chessie System (B&O) “Raceland Repaint 1979+” continues Tangent’s dedication to replicating road-number specific repaints of I-18 cabooses. In 1979, the C&O Raceland, Kentucky, shops repainted the C-3034 with a fresh coat of yellow. While the work was being done, the caboose received Chessie-style fixed “box” markers, replacing the small silver Pyle lanterns, as well as a new FRA flashing end light. Check out the details of this 1979 Raceland paint job, including the silver smoke jack and silver area under the roof eaves. Notice the slightly lower Chessie cat, since the ACI label is no longer present, and of course, correct horizontal style COTS with accurate lettering exactly matching the prototype. Lighting features include prototypically dim interior lights, lit box markers, and red flashing end lights. Each prototype Raceland repaint scheme is a little different.
