{"product_id":"bowser-ho-fourgon-de-queue-de-transfert-n9-penn-central-premiere-version","title":"Bowser HO – N9 Transfer Caboose: Penn Central – Early","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eLooking to faithfully recreate the feel of the Penn Central at the dawn of the 1970s — that pivotal moment when two rail giants had just merged? Bowser's N9 class transfer caboose, in its early Penn Central scheme, is exactly the piece you need to cap off your consists with authenticity. Short and stripped-down, this type of caboose was built for 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, straddling the 1968 NYC\/PRR merger. Spartan by design — no roofwalks or ladders, and originally fitted with propane heating — these cabooses perfectly capture the thrifty spirit of the era. The early Penn Central livery will especially appeal to customers modeling the earliest days of \"PC.\" 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, early 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, late 1960s-1970s era\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bowser","offers":[{"title":"#18208","offer_id":48040332820654,"sku":"6-71001","price":179.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#18227","offer_id":48040332853422,"sku":"6-71002","price":179.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#18233","offer_id":48040332886190,"sku":"6-71003","price":179.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#18260","offer_id":48040332918958,"sku":"6-71004","price":179.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/0216\/1070\/files\/71001.jpg?v=1783019069","url":"https:\/\/modelebt.com\/en\/products\/bowser-ho-fourgon-de-queue-de-transfert-n9-penn-central-premiere-version","provider":"Modèle B.T.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
