That same year, Milwaukee Rail Car transformed it into a theater and inspection car for the Chicago \u0026amp; North Western Railway. In 1985, C\u0026amp;NW officially purchased the car, renumbered it as No. 420, and named it Fox River after the river that flows through much of the railroad's Wisconsin territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the 1995 merger of the Chicago \u0026amp; North Western into Union Pacific, the Fox River became part of Union Pacific's renowned heritage passenger fleet. The car underwent a comprehensive renovation in 1997 and received its current paint scheme in 2006, featuring the distinctive white stripe along the roof. Today, it is frequently seen bringing up the rear of Union Pacific's famous yellow business train, serving as a fitting symbol of the railroad's commitment to preserving its rich history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautifully Detailed and Accurately Modeled to present day appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision Paint, Color, and Lettering Schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed Interiors prototypical to the car the Fox River\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProperly Colored Interiors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControllable LED lights include: ditchlights, markerlights, tail lights, and interior lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMany Separately Applied Details including hand rails, grab irons, ladders, antenna arrangement, and many more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal wheelsets feature prototypical wheel face contours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-equipped with Microtrains-compatible operating knuckle couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill operate on code 55, code 70 and code 80 rail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum Operating Radius: 9.75 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePREORDER INFORMATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Pre-Order item.
