Illinois Central Gulf Gondolas 1972+

The Illinois Central Gulf rostered a sizeable fleet of Gondolas, in both ex-GM&O and ex-IC 41', 52', and 65' classes. Through the 1970s, the ICG Centralia shops built another 700 52' gons in various classes.

The ICG used both orange and white lettering schemes through the 1970s. This decal set includes all of the data you need to decal three cars. (One ICG 41' gon in orange lettering, one ICG 52'-65' gon in orange lettering, and one 52'-65' Gon in white lettering) This decal set is BIG and includes everything from the orange billboard lettering to the tiniest repaint dates. All you need to supply is the ACI label.

Appropriate car numbers include:

41' Gons: ICG 240000-240221, 240239-241141, 241300-241728. (Typically used orange Illinois Central Gulf lettering and emblem.)
