This is an MTH 80-98026 Burlington Northern 60 Foot Wood Deck Flat Car with a 315C Hydraulic Excavator. Between 1964 and 1975, Trailer Train (now known as TTX Co.) acquired a fleet of 5,000 modern 60′ flat cars. Similar cars are rostered by most major U.S. railroads. Bult 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 TTX’s bread and butter, intermodal containers.
Our model is based on TTX class F60GH cars built in the mid-1970s by Pullman Standard. Equipped with four rows of tie-down tracks, two astride the center sill and one along each side, these wooden-decked cars are assigned to heavy-duty equipment service. Our model replicates the prototype’s intricate details and is offered with several appropriate loads of heavy machinery.
