This Bluford Shops model is molded in three variations to simulate cars which have taken a beating in rough service - they have dented-out sides molded in their bodies! Lightly dented versions have multiple deflections in the side sheets above the floor line. The medium dented versions have the side sheets visibly puffed outward between the rivet lines as countless small dings to the inside faces accumulated and stretched the sheets into rough domes. The heavily fented versions also have the puffed-out panels but to a greater extent - plus many of the ribs have also been deflected outward. The concave dent detail on the inside faces matches the convex outside faces. Mill gondolas take a beating when they're loaded with scrap metal and finished structural steel thanks to the weight of the load and swinging loading cranes - they regularly hit the car sides from the inside. The only time a mill gondola has smooth sides is the day it's released from the factory. Other features of these models include roadname-appropriate ends and brake wheel\/ratchet details, mottled-rust painted interior, die cast metal floor, accurate decoration, metal wheels and body-mounted magnetic knuckle couplers. The gondolas are available in several roadnumbers per roadname and in all three amounts of denting in each roadname.

This was the peak of U.S. modern freight car production, however it wasn't just limited to the U.S. builders as multiple U.S. railroads opted to purchase the 70-ton 50-foot boxcar from the Mexican freight car builder CNCF. Thousands more CNCF 5000 boxcars would be built for Mexico's national railways in the 1980s as well. These 5000 cubic foot boxcars still roam the rails of U.S., Canada, and Mexico into the 2020s. The CNCF 5000 has many unique spotting features from the triangular supports above the door post, to the wrapped end sheets and the sharp notches in the sill near the stirrups. This model features roadname-appropriate body styles, door styles, and end styles, as well as applied wire grab irons, blackened metal wheels and metal knuckle couplers. This iconic boxcar is a must have for any model railroader focused between the late 1970s and present day.
