Piggy-Packer action!

Here are some PC-90 Piggy-Packers in action at Erie Lackawanna's 51St. Yard in Chicago just after the arrival of UPS hot train CX 99 from Croxton, N.J.  Notice the UPS Diamond Rio tractor and UPS exterior post van.  They come photo courtesy from Paul Tupaczewski and Paul Brezicki.

Enjoy.

Piggy-Packer artwork revisions and the competition!

A number of artwork has been revised as we re-review our photos and find additional photos.  BNSF has yellow wheels.  CRR of NJ has a blue stripe and no "Strongman" logo.  UP with small logo has no "Raygo Wagner" label on the back.

Below was the competition for the Piggy-Packer.  It's the Marathon Le Tourneau Letro-Porter which had a diesel-electric drive.  More about the Piggy-Packer in our blog history.

By the way, be sure to reserve before Sept. 29th for your Piggy-Packer.

Variations to PC-90 Piggy-Packer

Early PC-90 Piggy-PackerWilliam Cowper said, “Variety's the very spice of life, That gives it all its flavor."  As you probably guessed it, the PC-90 Piggy-Packers are no exception.  Some equipment had handrails on the lift, others did not.  Some units had no ladder nor handrails on the lift either.  For example, Erie Lackawanna (leased units), DRG&W (leased units), some Burlington Northern units, Rock Island, and some Southern Pacific ones had these variations including the features of the "early" variation as shown in the above picture.  We hope to cover the different variations in our production.  See more of Wheels of Time PC-90 Piggy-Packer at our web site.
