This is our tribute to John Allen's groundbreaking Gorre & Daphetid layout. John used the Superior Detritus car to showcase his weathering techniques in the hobby press during a time when weathering was still a new concept. Letters one car.
The original model as built in 1955 was lettered with a patchwork of commercial dry transfer sets. We started from scratch with this project, maintaining fidelity to the billboard lettering but making small adjustments to the data and small lettering to better match real cars from the time period. For example, John originally added a Pressed Steel Car Company builders' logo - an impossibility considering it's a wood car with a wood frame. We swapped that out for a Pullman logo instead.

Good quality and very thin. Ready to transfer very quickly. I soak for two seconds and set on the edge of the dish, and they are ready to transfer. I liked them enough to order more.
Very finely printed. Now I need to find photos of the original car.
This was a quick and easy transaction
If you ever traveled to a new destination it's the unique buildings, the different eateries, and the interesting landscapes that make it memorable. The same thing makes your railroad interesting for you and any visitors. Make it memorable!

Made-to-Order Manufacturing
At 3DPT, every model is manufactured to order rather than pulled from warehouse inventory. This approach allows us to offer an extensive catalog while ensuring each piece is produced with the care and attention it deserves.
Most orders ship within 7-14 business days. However, larger models, complex projects, and high-volume orders may require 4-6 weeks or longer due to extended print times and production requirements.
While extended lead times are uncommon, they may occasionally occur during periods of high demand or due to circumstances outside our control. We appreciate your understanding as we continue our mission of preserving transportation history in miniature through high-quality, made-to-order models.
