Tangent PS4750
This Tangent 4750 is from their last run with ICG, this was once a nice shiny out of the box car with a perfect paint job and I ruined it some will say^ For aging the factory lettering I used the Microsol trick with Qtips and an Exacto blade.
I did very little to this car in the way of details as with my other Tangent cars, I used Sergent couplers, my own custom hand bent cut levers (lift bars to people in the south), replaced the brake wheel with a Kadee wheel and used Tangent 36" code .88 wheels. I faded the car down then used pan pastels for the majority of the weathering and Pigma Micron08 pens for small items. These are time consuming cars to weather but well worth the time it takes.
