{"product_id":"bowser-ho-fourgon-de-queue-de-transfert-n9-penn-central-version-tardive","title":"Bowser HO – N9 Transfer Caboose: Penn Central – Late","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eLooking to depict the Penn Central at its peak in the 1970s, when its transfer cabooses already had a few years of service behind them? Bowser's N9 class transfer caboose, in its late Penn Central scheme, is exactly the piece you need to round out your consists with accuracy. Short and functional, this type of caboose handled yard service and point-to-point transfer moves — a quiet but very real role that adds instant operational credibility to your switching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eBowser here recreates a prototype with a well-documented history: the 160 N9 cabooses (numbers 18195 to 18354) were built at the Despatch Shops in East Rochester, New York, on repurposed boxcar underframes. The late version reflects how these cabooses evolved in PC service — including the gradual removal of the NYC-inherited Pyle lanterns in favor of the red end marker lights Penn Central applied in the 1970s. Spartan by design, with no roofwalks or ladders, this caboose perfectly captures the railroad's thrifty spirit. The late Penn Central livery will especially appeal to customers modeling the mid-to-late \"PC\" era. Ready to run and finely detailed, this model brings your trains the realism Bowser is known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHO scale (1:87)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eN9 class transfer caboose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePenn Central livery, late scheme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eReady-to-run (RTR)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePrototype-faithful molded details (no roofwalks or ladders, per the N9)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFactory-mounted magnetic knuckle couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFree-rolling trucks with metal wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eIdeal for yard service and transfer moves, 1970s era\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bowser","offers":[{"title":"#18201","offer_id":48040343273646,"sku":"6-71005","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#18218","offer_id":48040343306414,"sku":"6-71006","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#18259","offer_id":48040343339182,"sku":"6-71007","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#18268","offer_id":48040343371950,"sku":"6-71008","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/0216\/1070\/files\/71005.jpg?v=1783020155","url":"https:\/\/modelebt.com\/en-us\/products\/bowser-ho-fourgon-de-queue-de-transfert-n9-penn-central-version-tardive","provider":"Modèle B.T.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
