The first flatcars were simply platforms with wheels that were used to transport goods such as lumber and coal. As railroads became more sophisticated and rail lines expanded, flatcars became more specialized and were used to transport a wider variety of goods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween 1964 and 1975, Trailer Train (now known as TTX Co.) acquired a fleet of 5,000 modern 60' flat cars. Similar 60’ cars are rostered by most major US 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 intermodal containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model is based on the TTX class F60GH cars built in the late 1960s by Pullman-Standard. Equipped with four rows of tie-down tracks, one on either side of the center sill and one along the outside edges of the floor, these wooden-decked cars are assigned to heavy-duty equipment service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple road numbers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully assembled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinely cast stirrup steps; end details; underbody and brake system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire grab irons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMolded simulated wood deck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparately applied handbrake wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed die cast trucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e33” Machined metal wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurately profiled .110″ wide wheel tread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic semi-scale Type E knuckle couplers, Kadee compatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody mounted coupler box will accept Kadee whisker couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighted to Industry standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperates on Code 70, 83 and 100 rail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging safely stores model when assembled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum radius 18”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: Road number may vary from picture shown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fox Valley Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45689469599957,"sku":"SXT15041","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/fox-valley-models-15041-ho-scale-60-p-s-f60gh-flatcar-santa-fe-atsf-95415-2.png?v=1706196283","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/products\/fox-valley-models-15041-ho-scale-60-p-s-f60gh-flatcar-santa-fe-atsf-95415","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
