MTH - 60 FOOT FLATCARS WITH
LOADS
Between 1964 and 1975, Trailer Train (now known as TTX Co.)
acquired a fleet of 5,000 modern 60' flat cars. Similar cars
are rostered by most major U.S. railroads. Built by ACF, Thrall,
and Pullman Standard, the TTX cars were assigned to various
classes to handle loads as diverse as auto frames, logs, military
vehicles, farm equipment, and construction equipment. Some were
even modified to handle TTX's bread and butter, intermodal containers.
Our model is based on the TTX class F60GH cars built in the
mid-1970s by Pullman Standard. Equipped with four rows of tie-down
tracks, two astride the center sill and one along each side,
these wooden-decked cars are assigned to heavy-duty equipment
service. Our model replicates the prototype's intricate details
and is offered with several appropriate loads of heavy machinery.
