PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:

The 60’ flatcar was introduced in the late 1960’s to accommodate bulk loads of various large sizes not exceeding 60’. Each flat car was set up with stake pockets to assist stabilizing each load. Subsequently, these versatile all-purpose flatcars became the de-facto standard for lumber and pipe service during the era.
