Files to make a Pullman WWII troop sleeper. This is the first version (7000 series) that had steps at the side doors. After the war many of these cars were used by railroads in MOW service. Files are included to make the car as built, plus a modified roof file that has a hole and stack for a stove as used when in MOW service. Also included are window plug files that can be used to "plate" over windows to match your railroads practice. Interior details include toilets, sinks and seats. Note the model pictures show a second (9000 series car) However, these files have a modified center section, underframe and steps instead of a ladder, and it will have the same style roof as the WM caboose, only without any walkways. Trucks are not included, but if you are running G scale I have a Allied Full cushion truck available which will match this car. The car sides, roof and underframe are each three sections that pin and glue together. Each component is then assembled with screws (I used M2 screws). The roof is removable. The diaphragms are a separate piece which can be used or omitted depending upon your prototype. The underframe is set up for both Kadee No 1 and G coupler boxes. There is less swing with the 830 coupler box, you could also adapt a standard box to give more swing clearance. Pin alignment holes and hand grabs holes are scaled to fit 3​/​64" rod (if printing in 1:29 scale). There are also holes on the ends for using Ozark grab irons The files are scaled to 1 mm = 1" (1​/​25.4 scale) so when printing your car adjust the % in your slicer based on your scale: G scale (1:29) scale to 86% O Scale (1​/​48) scale to 52% S Scale (1​/​64) scale to 39% HO Scale (1​/​87) scale to 29% All parts will fit a standard 220 x 220 build plate

Railroad

These were operated by Pullman during WWII and were then used by many different railroads in MOW service following the war.
