Dear HO Scale Customers;

Athearn has announced the RTR 60 ft Bulkhead Flat Cars

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:

Specialized load handling equipment has long been used to secure loads in railroad freight service. One of the most common forms used on flatcars is the addition of bulkheads to the ends of the car. Bulkhead ends not only make it easy to load pulpwood, but also keep regular items like lumber, building materials and pipe loads from shifting in transit.

MODEL FEATURES:

• Separately applied end details and brake wheel

• 33” machined metal wheels with RP25 contours

• Body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers

• Weighted for optimum performance

• Fully-assembled and ready to run

• Highly-detailed, injection-molded body

• Painted and printed for realistic decoration

• Minimum radius: 18”

Athearn has brought the joy of model railroading to you for 75 years, starting from our classic ‘Blue-Box” kits to our most recent Genesis 2.0 line.
