Atlas 20008447 HO Scale Articulated Bulk Carrier General American Marks GIMX 7008

The Articulated Bulk Carrier car was designed to navigate tight curves and small, narrow industries where a flat car may have overhang clearance issues on curves, or length issues. Essentially, the Articulated Bulk Carrier is a long, traditional flat car with a pivot point in the center, along with a truck underneath the pivot point to provide additional weight distribution to allow for more containers to be loaded. This car was introduced in the late 20th century when many landfills around NYC closed, and refuse had to be moved elsewhere.
