In 1963, Westinghouse bought this car from General Steel Industries, and sold it to the PRR for transporting its large bearing castings. Two photos were published in the Pennsylvania Railroad Flat Cars book published by the PRRT&HS in 2008. This S-scale model appears to be an accurate representation.

Notes:
The load was included. The idea was that these relatively affordable kits provided the modeler with a good start, but additional detailing can be done by the modeler to the extent he or she wishes. While the company's web site is still around, the owner has passed away, and so this model appears to not be available anymore.
