Nice model!. I have 4 with Corn products patch out paint scheme. Three are Atlas and 1 Walthers. Atlas’ model is better than Walthers Reply
They are, just re-realeasing with new patch-out paint scheme. http://www.atlasrr.com/Images/HOFreightCars/hotrinity/0812/20001674_TQ.jpg Reply
I was wondering what VTG was. I think I started seeing these repatch cars about two years ago and now they are a staple at Cargill. Reply
Random info, but VTG is major player in the European petroleum and chemical tank car leasing market, much like the European version of GATX or UTLX. They’ve tapped the US market in that last few years leasing corn syrup cars. Reply
Good Eye Ron, That’s right, it’s BNSF 1798 SD40-2. Still in BN Green.

Isn’t this a corn syrup car? I thought these were already on the market in HO.
