First off double check your local hobbyshop and lookat the N scale and HO
version of the car. And check Lionel website again they said this car was to
have scale wheels with the option of puttin highrail wheels on it.
Thanks,
Alan

First thing is its not even the right car lionel put that scheme on. The real
car was a national steel car 4 bay cylindrical covered hopper while lionel's
offering isn't even close to that. Also, anything more than one car number is
also incorrect. The CN only painted the one car in that scheme. It was painted
tat way to promote the potash mining and shipping that the CN deals with. This
car was used exclusively in the potash industry. You can always tellv the
cylindicals service type. This car has the round hatches in the top. Those are
alway for the potash or fertilizer industry, while the ones with the trough
hatches are always used to ship grains.
A better choice will be kaslo shops cylindrical covered hopper and then have
some decals made for it.

Tom,
Looks like they were trying new paint colors and used only that side , but
it turned up on the prototype car. MY THOUGHTS.

Anyone who knows Lionel's propensity for giving the kiddos stuff like the
Mickey & Minnie handcar and the Goofy boxcar may suspect that that "Lifesaver"
-looking tankcar is just another Lionel cutesie. But the number on the car in
Lionel's catalog turns up a picture of the real one.
But further poking around on the internet reveals the information that this
was painted that way on one side only. The other side was a more conventional
CN paint scheme.
I wonder what Lionel will do.
