Upgrade your HO Scale intermodal fleet in no time with WaltherMainline Thrall Rebuilt 40' Well Cars! As the 53' container became the norm for domestic shipping, older 48' well cars fell out of use.

These fully - assembled models are ready to roll. Key features include: a limited - quantity one - time run of these road numbers; a heavy die - cast metal frame for great performance whether empty or loaded; finely - molded 3 - D brake rods with chains, brake piping, and weld lines on the body; separate deck - mounted brake details with piping, IBC storage boxes, and realistic walkways; 70 - ton roller bearing trucks; correct 33' RP - 25 turned metal wheelsets; and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers. Note: The picture might show a different road number.

Using your Walthers HO Scale 5 - Unit Rebuilt 40' Well Car is a breeze. Just place it on your model railroad track, and it's ready to start carrying containers. When handling, be gentle to avoid damaging the delicate 3 - D brake rods and other fine details. To keep it in top shape, regularly clean the wheelsets with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dirt build - up. Check the couplers periodically to make sure they're working smoothly. Store the well car in a dry place away from direct sunlight to avoid any color fading or warping. Since it's a limited - quantity item, handle it with care to preserve its value.
