READING RAILROAD #27803 is Funaro & Camerlengo "The other Alternative to Brass" Kit #6640 for RDG 42' class GBc composite Gondola from series 27500-28499 built in 1913 and completely built to ready to run. Model features are Intermountain non-magnetic blackened all brass wheels, Brass grab irons, hand painted Kadee air hoses, Carmer type coupler cut levers, Tichy Andrews trucks, screw secured Kadee couplers, added concealed weight and full underbody K brake detail. Couplers have been set to NMRA standards for correct height and operation. Uncoulping pins also adjusted. All details that came with the kit have been added to this model. Model is painted with Floquil Engine and lettered in the post 1927 scheme (with a reweigh date of 1939) with a semi gloss out shop condition finish (no weathering). Instruction and history sheets will come with the model. This is a true problem free RTR model that can go from the included foam padded storage/transport box straight to the track. I will package this model to protect it. Since I spent so many hours in building it, you KNOW I will. Funaro kits are 100% correct HO scale models of thier prototype counterparts and are highly detail kits equal to Westerfield and others. Each RTR model will come with it's history and instruction sheets in a well padded foam lined storage/transport box. 100 read more
