HO 60' Flatcar C&EI Plastic Model (ATH98082)

This HO-scale 60-foot flatcar in C&EI livery is a ready-to-run addition for realistic freight trains on a model railroad. Recreating a late-1960s design, it represents a versatile flatcar built for bulk loads up to 60 feet long, making it a natural choice for lumber, pipe, and other bulk shipments on a layout.

Detail features include separately applied end details and a brake wheel, 33-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, and weight for steady operation. The car uses body-mounted scale knuckle couplers for dependable, prototypical coupling and a highly detailed injection-molded body that arrives decorated and fully assembled, ready to run out of the box. It is designed to negotiate an 18-inch minimum radius on standard layouts. In prototype service, these flatcars emerged in the late 1960s as all-purpose platforms—often equipped with stake pockets to stabilize large loads—becoming a staple for lumber and pipe shipments.
