Conx 5 was owned by the Continental Oil Co (Conoco) of Ponca City, Okla. and was usually used on the C&S. It was built as a standard gauge car sometime before before 1895, and was in a group of 15 cars converted to narrow gauge by Conoco when obtained by them. Conoco cars were originally painted silver with black reporting marks and large green Conoco lettering on their sides, but were later painted black with white marking. They were also lettered COLX before 1920.

This model was built from Tomalco plans drawn by Joe Crea, published in “A Century + Ten of D&RGW Narrow Gauge Freight Cars, 1871 to 1981”, by Robert Sloan. Howard Saunders performed all file and texture tweaking, all lettering, and initial testing. Tom Werb performed the Beta testing, and the screenie is courtesy of Howard Sanders.

Enjoy, Bill
