Rapido Class F30D 50' Welded Rail Car (138405A) | Single | Norfolk Southern | HO Scale

(No duplicate road numbers)

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.

Continuous Welded Rail (CWR) Cars:

Also new are Continuous Welded Rail (CWR) cars. CWR cars carry racks that house sticks of welded rail. These cars generally travel in sets of 12 or 24 cars and often shut down mainlines for hours at a time while they drop off rail! Our CWR flat features a new deck with deck mounted rail racks.
