OVERVIEW
Chooch Enterprises is pleased to provide you with this kit for the Soo Line single sheathed boxcar with dreadnaught ends. The Soo and its subsidiary possessed a very large fleet of single sheathed boxcars with a unique saw tooth pattern on the side. The side posts extended below the side sill, creating the saw tooth look. There were detail differences between the various lots ranging from deep fishbelly centersills, Murphy roofs and composite ends to the later cars with steel ends, Chicago Cleveland radial roofs and straight centersills. This is the third of our final Soo Line series.
Chooch Enterprises would like to thank Dennis Storzek for his technical support that was essential to development of the kit. He has been a great resource and provided an unbiased assessment of the project. In addition, Ken Soroos provide the excellent decal artwork for this car as well as the previous kit #812.
If you find the Soo Line a subject you want to learn more about, you should visit the Soo Line Technical and Historical Society on the web.

Special thanks to Gene Deimling for his tremendous desire and skills in making the patterns for this project. Without Gene, this project would not have been done!
