Description
Enhance your HO Scale intermodal fleet in no time with the WaltherMainline Thrall Rebuilt 40' Well Cars. As the 53' container became the norm for domestic shipping, older 48' well cars lost their appeal. Starting in 2003, Thrall rebuilt these cars, shortening the wells to 40'. Now, they carry 20' and 40' containers in the well and 40' and 53' units on top. This Walthers 910-55657 model, featuring Santa Fe Leasing SFLC #1027 A-E with yellow, black, and yellow conspicuity stripes, is fully assembled and ready to go. Key features include: a one-time run of these road numbers (limited quantity, order now!), 100- and 70-ton roller bearing trucks, correct 36' and 33' RP-25 turned metal wheelsets, a heavy die-cast metal frame for great performance empty or loaded, finely molded 3-D brake rods with chains, brake piping and weld lines on the body, separate deck-mounted brake detail with piping, IBC storage boxes and realistic walkways, and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers. Note: Picture may show a different road number.
Using this HO scale well car is a breeze. Just place it on your model train track, and it's ready to roll. Since it's fully assembled, you don't have to do any complicated setup. When loading it, you can place 20' and 40' containers in the well and 40' and 53' units on top to create a realistic intermodal scene. As for handling, be gentle when moving it around to avoid damaging the delicate brake rods and other details. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the car regularly. Keep it in a dry place to prevent rusting of the metal parts. Remember, this is a limited - quantity item, so take good care of it to enjoy it for a long time.
