An HO model of a Lehigh Valley Railroad Coach, which was listed in a Freight Equipment Roster for the railroad in 1892 as a "Workingmans Car". It is likely the coach was converted from a passenger car for MOW service some time prior. The body was 41'-2" on length.
I have little else to go on for this car, though I have some insight as to possible color schemes which the modeller may wish to make use of in painting the car in passenger colors:
- "An Ugly Green Color" (1876).
- A light olive color, with gold and black striping. The only ornaments being the name of the road and the number of the car. (1882).
- Lehigh Valley Standard Passenger colors (A Tuscan Red Color, 1885).
- A Rich Brown with Gold Trimmings, similar in appearance to Reading Coach Brown.. though retaining LV Styling with a Black colored Nameboard at the top of the car. (1892).
The car will require the following details to be sourced separately: Trucks, handrails, Brakewheels, couplers, paint and lettering. The four platform stairs will need to be glued into place on the chassis.

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.
