S&R # 505/507 Blue Circle Cement
Blue Circle Cement plants operate ALL over the US and CANADA and around the world. Blue circle operates barges, rail cars, Cement delivery trucks and assorted over the road vehicles. Blue Circle Cement was bought by LaFarge S.A. in 2001. We have two slightly different paint schemes available on the Atlas PS 3-bay covered hopper. One car has 'Atlanta, GA' under the logo.  We photographed these in Jacksonville. The Associated Minerals car and our CSX hopper were in the same string of cars. These models represent the first releases in a series of Blue Circle models to be released. (Don't forget to add the Micro-Trains 2-bay ACF hoppers to your fleet & the NEW ATLAS models).
