Holt Apgar partially re-painted his model to represent the car as it was in the mid-1950s. This class of mill gondolas (#13700 - 13899) was built by Pullman Standard in 1951. Holt used Highball Graphics decals and Model Graphics dry transfers for the lettering and numbers, sealed with a flat clear lacquer.
