As the transportation of coiled steel increased, a new purpose - built freight car was developed. Before, coiled - steel rolls were usually transported in specially equipped gondola cars. In the 1960s, a lighter car type for hauling steel coils in an integral trough emerged and became very popular, with over 17,000 cars built. Atlas' model replicates a 42' design with a unique fishbelly side sill. Key features include crisp painting and lettering, see - through walks, a removable hood, and detailed inside floor.

Using this Atlas N scale 42' Coil Steel Car is easy. Just place it on your N scale railway track and let it roll along. When handling, be gentle to avoid any damage to the delicate parts like the see - through walks. If you want to access the inside of the car, simply remove the hood. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior and remove any dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the paint and lettering. Store the car in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent any warping or damage. And always double - check that all parts are properly attached before running it on the track.
