HO 60' Bulkhead Flat Southern Pacific Flatcar Model (ATH17235)

HO-scale 60-foot bulkhead flatcar designed to haul lumber, pulpwood and other bulk loads on Southern Pacific trains. This model reproduces the distinctive bulkhead ends that keep cargo from shifting, with separate end details and a brake wheel for added realism. It is offered as a single Southern Pacific bulkhead flatcar or as a three-car SP set, fully assembled and ready to run. The injection-molded body is highly detailed and finished with authentic paint and printing, giving a convincing, prototype-like appearance on the layout.

On the track, the car rides on 33-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for smooth rolling, and it uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers for reliable, prototypical coupling. The model is weighted for steady performance on curves and through switches, and the detailed construction supports a durable, long-lasting pull. The 18-inch minimum radius makes it compatible with common HO layouts, and the bulkhead ends help keep loads—such as lumber, pulpwood or pipe—secure during transit, delivering a realistic freight experience whether used as a single car or as part of a small SP train.
