Prototype History:
Back in the 1970s, as demand for clean-burning coal rapidly increased, Pullman-Standard introduced a coal gondola for unit train service. Widely used by BN and many private utilities, unit trains of these cars hauled coal from Wyoming to users throughout the country. Thousands were constructed in the mid to late 1970s and many are still used in maintenance-of-way service and by secondary owners for moving scrap metal and other materials.

The Pullman-Standard 4000 cuft gondola that was very common in coal service out West. A lot of them have ended up in secondhand scrap service all over the country.
Road Name History:
Cajun Electric Power Cooperative Inc. is a non-profit, member-owned electric generation and transmission cooperative. The Company supplies electric power to distributors throughout the State of Louisiana. ADDRESS: 10719 Airline Highway PO Box 15540 Baton Rouge, LA 70816 United States
Brand/Importer Information:
Fox Valley Models is a small supplier of model railroad and related products. FVM started by finding solutions to different challenges that model railroaders were faced with. Our first products resulted from a need to equip custom built passenger cars with tinted windows made of an ideal material; thin, flexible, easy to cut, simple to install, available in multiple colors and be affordable. We met those needs and even included a frosted version for the car's lavatory windows.

Other challenges inspired additional products including wooden grade crossings, trestles and different lineside structures. As our product line expands, input and requests from friends and customers help shape the product selection further.

Future products, under development, include more parts, structures, details and rolling stock. We strive to offer a good quality product at an affordable price.
