#7443-R BN ACF Smooth Side Mail Dormitory

Price range: $20.99 through $47.99

Research for these cars is a little confusing. 5 Mail Dormitories were built by Pullman Standard for the “North Coast Limited” in ’47 and ’48 (see our #7533), but sources also show a former C&NW Baggage Dormitory as being rebuilt to a Mail Dorm, this the smaller windows on one side of this car.

FOR CAR SIDES ONLY: If you are using a donor car and replacing it's sides with ours, we will need the length that you need. Our default length is 11-3/8". Please put your needed length below. Also, if you want skirts removed, please state ALL for a flat bottom on the sides or CENTER to have the center skirt removed.

Description

Recreate a unique piece of Northern Pacific and Burlington Northern history with our #7443-R ACF Smooth Side Mail Dormitory parts. These cars have a fascinating and somewhat complex lineage, with research suggesting they were either part of a small group built by Pullman-Standard for the ‘North Coast Limited’ in the late 1940s or rebuilt from former C&NW baggage dormitories. A key identifying feature of this model is the presence of smaller windows on one side, characteristic of its rebuilt dormitory configuration. Our precision-engineered parts capture the smooth-sided ACF aesthetic and these specific window details with exceptional accuracy. Designed for modelers who appreciate the unique and often modified cars of the NP and BN fleets, these components provide the detail and quality needed for a professional-grade model railroad project.
