GUARANTEED DELIVERY

As the 53' container quickly became the standard for domestic shipping, older well cars built to carry 48' boxes soon fell out of favor with railroads. Most were only a few years old, so starting in 2003 Thrall began a rebuilding program that shortened the wells to the standard 40'. Today they can be seen carrying 20' and 40' containers in the well, with 40' and 53' units on top.

This release includes multiple road numbers and schemes to choose from in single cars and 5 well articulated sets.

Features:

• Fully assembled and ready to run

• New tooled body style for 5 well articulated sets
