These four-axle, high horsepower engines are still in service today in North America.

The standard cars used at the time were full plate-deck 85’ and 89’ flat cars with 70-ton trucks. However, each 20-foot international shipping container of the era could gross some 25 tons – thus a flat car carrying four at maximum gross would be 100 tons. In an effort to address this weight issue, new flat cars with open decks and 100 ton trucks were placed in service and eventually used for a new railroad commodity – trash containers. Atlas’ 85’ model follows the open-deck flat design commonly seen in trash trains around the United States. The model also follows the prototypes used in international container service.

One of the vehicles commonly seen in this service is the 20’ MSW container. The more commonly seen ISO 20’ intermodal containers are used for transporting new products from country to country. The 20’ MSW intermodal container differs greatly from its ISO 20’ relative by being much taller and having a top lid. The 20’ MSW containers are 12 foot tall (compared to 8.5’ tall on the ISO 20’s). 20’ MSW containers usually travel in large blocks or solid trains on 80- and 89-foot flat cars. There have been no reported cases of double stacking as this would probably exceed most railroad height restrictions. The MSW container design is based on a steel frame incorporating ISO components for interchangeability. Each container is equipped with fork lift pockets for loading, unloading and moving around transfer facilities. Each container is equipped with a fire port on one side.

Two major types of cars emerged for hauling coal: hoppers and gondolas. The earlier cars were made of wood, then steel, and later aluminum. The lighter weight of aluminum allows greater lading and cubic foot capacities ideal for bulk minerals transport. By the 1980s, both coal hoppers and coal gondolas were using aluminum bodies in their construction. The Trainman® aluminum coal gondola model represents a typical Association of American Railroads car type code J311, a gondola car with a load limit greater than 185,000 lbs, depressed bottom, and 36’ to 48’ interior length. Typical of these cars is the rotary coupler usually signified by a contrasting color on one or both ends. The Trainman® model has thirteen side stakes and a double tub bottom. Gross Rail Loading is rated at 286,000 lbs. neW rOad numberS & PaInt SCHemeS!
