ExactRail releases the P-S 7315 "Waffle" Boxca Author: BruceStikkers Blain, They look great so consider making them in N-Scale and I will order some. The UP one really looks nice. I really like my other ExactRail cars.

My best, Blaine Hadfield ExactRail Date: 08/24/15 18:16 Re: Available Now! ExactRail releases the P-S 7315 "Waffle" Boxca Author: gandydancer4 Dang Blaine!! Just as I was getting over the SOUTHERN "BIG JOHN" hoppers, you've hit another one outta the park. These look great. I'll be getting some from my favorite supplier. Thank you!!

Curious for those in the know. What would these cars typically haul? Nathan Posted from iPhone Date: 08/24/15 21:11 Re: Available Now! ExactRail releases the P-S 7315 "Waffle" Boxca Author: wabash2800 Waffles...<G>

This is another release of the earlier model (I believe the third run). The contemporary UP scheme really looks sharp! Dave Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 08/25/15 07:29 by drolsen. Date: 08/25/15 08:19 Re: Available Now! ExactRail releases the P-S 7315 "Waffle" Boxca Author: binder001 Blaine, these look sharp. As a "UP guy" I will have to have at least the contemporary one, but that original scheme looks great too!

ExactRail releases the P-S 7315 "Waffle" Boxca Author: SPDRGWfan I really like these P-S 7315 waffle box cars. I've ordered a couple already in DT&I and UP yellow.
I noticed the GT blue cars were mentioned as repainted and else where they were repainted DT&I cars. When was the date they were repainted? Cheers, Jim |
