HO 53' Wabash Plate Trailer XTRA (ATH72819)

HO-scale 53-foot Wabash Plate Trailer, XTRA edition, is a highly detailed HO-model of a 53-foot plate trailer used in piggyback service, designed to enrich modern TOFC trains with authentic period equipment.

Key features include separately-applied landing gear and mud flaps, and an injection-molded body that’s painted and printed from prototype photos to mirror the real thing. The finish is weather-ready, with faded base colors matched to the prototype, providing a natural starting point for adding grime and rust. The Wabash Plate trailer is distinguished by its uneven exterior rib spacing and was a common sight on rails and highways in the 1990s and 2000s before being replaced by DuraPlate trailers.
