Description

Hey look, another Pullman! Pullmans galore!

This is the Branchline #15314 12-1 Pullman as "Oliver Hazard Perry." Gold lettering, PRR Tuscan Red and painted in the 1948 - 1953 Paint scheme. The real Oliver Hazard Perry was a Plan 3410A Pullman, constructed in 1926 and part of lot 4943 (One of 32 cars). All of its lot siblings were painted Pennsylvania for Pennsy service. This car still carries its Pullman name though the real car was sold to the Pennsy in 1948 at the date of the divestiture, however given that it still specifically says "1953" its possible the car still carried the letterboard until repainting that year.

The branchline model came to me from a friend thinning his collection. It is my first Pennsylvania assigned Pullman. Needs a little gluing here and there on some parts but appears to be in good mechanical shape.
