HOn3 HS Gondola FGH #1039 Wthr

When you open your Blackstone Models High Side Gondola, you will find a plastic bag taped to the blister pack which contains two small castings that appear to be a block with nut bolt and washer detail on one face. This piece was cast to represent the step block that was mounted to the inside of the gondolas on the grab iron (ladder) side of each end of the car.

With a small dab of your favorite plastic glue (ACC is recommended), you may apply this part to the inside of your car to add just a little more detail to your gon. The photo shows the proper spot, which is approximately two board widths up from the bottom and just next to the corner brace. It should be applied with the flat side to the car and the nut and bolt side showing to the outside.
