Upgrade your HO Scale intermodal fleet quickly with WaltherMainline's Thrall Rebuilt 40' Well Cars. As 53' containers became the norm for domestic shipping, older 48' well cars lost popularity. Starting in 2003, Thrall rebuilt these cars, shortening the wells to 40'. Now, they can carry 20' and 40' containers in the well and 40' and 53' units on top. These fully - assembled models are ready for service and come with great features. There's a limited quantity of these road numbers, so order now. They have a heavy die - cast metal frame for excellent performance whether empty or loaded. The body has finely molded 3 - D brake rods with chains, brake piping, and weld lines. There's also separate deck - mounted brake detail with piping, IBC storage boxes, and realistic walkways. They come with 70 - ton roller bearing trucks, correct 33' RP - 25 turned metal wheelsets, and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers. Note that the picture might show a different road number.
