Atlas Model Railroad Co. 50003853 40' Standard-Height Container 3-Pack - Assembled -- Undecorated, N Scale

AtlasSKU: ATL50003853

Description

The development of
shipping containers reached a turning point in the late 1970s when
standardization began to take place. Prior to this time numerous designs and
sizes of containers were seen throughout the world. The true intermodal era
began in the 1980s with the expanding world economy, Panama Canal ship size
restrictions, intermodal railway car (wagon) designs and the setting of ISO
standards for international shipping containers.

Todays commonly
seen steel all-corrugated ISO containers still have some variations, primarily
the doors. The new Atlas model will be a standard-height 40-footer which will
exhibit a range of door styles, roofs, and front walls to more closely match the
variations in the prototype containers seen throughout the world.

Features:

  • Prototypically
    accurate beveled all corrugated sides
  • Each set comes
    as a 3-pack
  • 1-1 door style
    with OTI handles
  • End walls have
    corrugations
