O Flat Car W/(1) M60 Tank Desert Scheme

On its customer Web site, the Union Pacific Railroad
characterizes flat cars as available “in a variety of
lengths, tonnage and capacities for specialized commodities that are
not subject to damage from the elements.” Attributes are
listed as “easier to load and unload freight,”
“can drive machinery directly on to the car,” and
nailable wood or steel floors that allow “nail blocking and
bracing to the floor for a damage-free, secure shipment.” For
shipping large or bulky items, from machinery to vehicles, the flat car
has been the solution since the dawn of railroading. Our RailKing
models depict the variety of loads that make the humble flat car so
interesting to railfans and modelers alike.

High quality, traditionally sized RailKing Freight Cars provide
detailed bodies and colorful paint schemes for the O Gauge railroader.
MTH makes an enormous variety of RailKing Freight Cars, including many
different car types and roadnames. No matter what era or part of the
country you are modeling, RailKing is sure to have something for you.
