[Pre-Order] WalthersMainline 910-51017 | 66' Heavy-Duty 4-Truck Flatcar - Ready to Run - CSX #600473 | HO Scale

When a load is too heavy or too large for an ordinary flatcar, railroads reach for specialised equipment like this 66' four-truck heavy-duty flatcar. Rated for 240 tons and up, cars like these ran in small fleets, assigned wherever heavy-haul work came up: industrial machinery, boilers, electrical generators and transformers, construction plant and military vehicles. The four-truck design is the whole point. Spreading the weight across sixteen axles lets the railroad move loads that would flatten a conventional car, and it gives the model a distinctive look that stands out in any consist.
