Rapido Class F30A 50' Flatcar w/ Camp Trailer (138110A) | Single | Norfolk Southern | HO Scale

The Pennsylvania Railroad’s class F30A flatcars was one of their most prolific classes of flatcars with 1500 being built between 1933 and 1934. The PRR utilized a massive one-piece steel casting for these F30 flatcars, and that sturdy construction meant that many of these cars lasted an incredibly long time, often with a second life in work train (MOW) service.

Camp Cars:

In the 1980s Conrail (and other railroads) mounted pre-fabricated “vans” on flatcars to house tack workers. Several common styles of van were built to serve the various needs of the work crews. These “Camp Trains” were familiar sights on Conrail and still exist on Norfolk Southern and other roads.

Rapido offers four different camp car body styles: sleeper, diner, kitchen and office. We also offer each style van separately. They are perfect offices for yards, engine terminals, construction sites, and have all sorts of other applications! Separate vans are painted in appropriate colours but are unlettered.
