  • NEW MODEL! O USRA 0-6-0 SWITCHER

NEW MODEL!

O USRA O-6-0 Switcher Steam Locomotive
First Model in the Atlas O Founders? Series


(Technical artwork shown)

 


 

The United States Railroad Administration (USRA) was formed to control rail traffic and to unify the maintenance and acquisition of equipment. From this directive, the USRA developed standardized designs of locomotives and freight cars that would meet the needs of railroads throughout the country and yet would share design aspects to minimize the number of types that would have to be produced. These standardized locomotives and freight cars were based on proven and sound designs and their longevity of service bear this out. This 0-6-0 steam switcher is one of these standardized designs and could be found across the United States on railroads big and small.

Berwick Forge & Fabricating built over 23,000 freight cars in its nearly 20 years of existence in Berwick, Pennsylvania. Their designs were very successful and most of the cars are still in service today. While Berwick built virtually all modern types of freight cars, they are perhaps best known for their 50' and 60' box cars.

This Atlas O model replicates the interesting series of 60' high-capacity cars that were built by Berwick in the late 70s. These Hy-Cube cars feature centered double plug-doors and a waffle pattern on the car sides.

Features Include:

  • Intricately-detailed ABS body
  • Etched metal safety platforms
  • Finely die-cast metal ladders and stirrups
  • Highly-detailed die-cast underframe
  • Accurate painting and lettering
  • 100-ton roller-bearing trucks with rotating bearing caps
  • Simulated paint overspray on roof
  • 3-Rail trucks are pre-drilled to accept Atlas O Adjust-A-Couplers?
  • Minimum diameter curve: O-54 (3-Rail)
  • Minimum radius curve: 36" (2-Rail)

Four road numbers are available per road name.

NEW ROAD NUMBERS & PAINT SCHEMES!

O PULPWOOD FLAT CAR

(Technical artwork shown)

Pulpwood is not a specific type of wood, but actually tree limbs that are cut to a specified length, then turned into wood pulp and used in the paper industry. Early paper making had the trees near the paper plant. As timber resources were diminished, the need for transporting pulpwood began to rise. Railroads were seen as an efficient method of transporting pulpwood. Pulpwood in the Southeast and Northeast is generally cut into four-foot or less lengths and loaded onto "V-deck" bulkhead flat cars. The Atlas pulpwood flat is a reproduction of an early 1950s General Steel Castings "V-deck" design.

Available in 2-rail as well as 3-rail, these ready-to-run freight cars have state-of-the-art detailing and construction. This Atlas O model branches out to reach the height of O model railroad accuracy. 

A separate and simulated detailed pulpwood load is also included. 

Features Include:
-3-Rail trucks are pre-drilled to accept Atlas O Adjust-A-Coupler?
-Die-cast articulated couplers (3-rail)
-Minimum diameter curve: O-27 (3-rail)
-Minimum radius curve: 24" (2-rail)
-Kadee-compatible scale couplers (2-rail)

Four road numbers are available per road name.
