Repaints of the NAVS 40-Foot PS-Type boxcar kit by ErickC. Requires navs_boxcar_40_ps-type.zip (elvastower.com and TrainSim.com), and navsfr10.zip (TrainSim.com)
The "Buffalo Boxcars" were 40 foot steel boxcars used to haul grain to Churchill and Thunder Bay. They were originally built in 1956 as newsprint cars. In 1987-88 they were converted to carry grain under a program financed by the Canadian and Manitoba governments. They carry a Government of Canada flag "word mark" as well as a Manitoba buffalo (ergo the name Buffalo Boxcar). They carry numbers in the series 445000-446615. Another series, rebuilt in 1987, carried numbers in the 429000 series.
The final Buffalo Boxcars were scrapped in late 1996 and 1997. Car 445647 was built in May 1956 and rebuilt into a Buffalo Boxcar in Sep 1987. Car 429004 was built in 1956 and converted in 1987. They are marked "THIS CAR NOT TO BE INTERCHANGED — FOR CHURCHILL AND THUNDER BAY GRAIN SERVICE ONLY". (source: CNRHA)
