Description

The AtlasO Trainman(R) two-rail O Scale 52'6" 70-Ton War-Emergency Gondola is based on cars built for the war effort in the 1940s. In the early 1940s, WWII was in full swing and materials were in short supply. This left the nation's railroads in a state of disarray, as many of the materials normally used for freight cars was redirected for wartime usage. The concept was to substitute wood for steel wherever possible. This resulted in cars having a half wood, half steel structure. The 52'6" 70-Ton War-Emergency Gondola captures the look and feel of the composite gondolas right down to the texture of the wood along the sides. This O Scale model features a detailed injection-molded body, movable drop-ends, fine decoration, metal wheels and metal knuckle couplers. The 70-Ton War-Emergency Gondola is perfect for your late steam and classic-diesel-era train consists. Check out the entire line of AtlasO freight cars.
