Description
One of the most overlooked, yet common loads carried by North American railroads is finished wood products! We are proud to introduce the HO Scale NSC 73’ Centerbeam Car. Over 20,000 examples of this car were produced by National Steel Car, between 1987 through the mid-2000s, with some car variations along the way.
Whenever you see a general merchandise freight pass by you, there’s a high probability that you will see at least four or more centerbeams mixed in. Have you taken notice of the roadnames/ownership of those cars? Centerbeams are unique in that they are owned by large Class I railroads, leasing companies and smaller shortlines. The wood industry is so lucrative that even our new run of the HO Scale 73’ NSC Centerbeam is no stranger to a wide variety of roadnames!
The Rapido Trains HO scale 73’ NSC Centerbeam features:
Multiple Side Sill variations with different winch and ratchet configurations
Multiple top truss configurations; early Z pattern and standard closed pattern with and without tie down brackets
Two deck configurations; early with risers and mid without risers
Two underbody configurations
Multiple end cage variants
Multiple brake stand options
Multiple truck types (six to be exact!)
Factory-installed rubber airhoses
See through eroded metal crossover platforms
Fully detailed underbodies with brake piping
Factory-installed metal grab irons and coupler lift bars
Free rolling, metal wheelsets
Suggested minimum radius: 22"
HO scale Centerbeam Lumber Load features:
Accurately sized for modern, 73' centerbeam flatcars
Each package contains four differently configured rows (each package loads one car)
Loads feature prototypically small see-through gaps between rows, a FIRST for molded centerbeam loads
Four rows of product, matching the most common modern bundle sizes
Each row is separate allowing endless combinations
You can arrange each load pack differently on both sides
Loads are held together by mini magnets
Acquiring multiple loads will create many combination opportunities!
Adventurous modelers can cut their loads creating new combinations, much like the prototype
