Uncovered lumber loads for 50' flatcars and the longer bulkhead type were produced for customers as they were not available in the hobby industry. Later when Micro Trains and Red Caboose produced the first and second generation center beam cars, we started producing uncovered lumber loads for those models. The plan was not to have kits.
Built up and READY TO LOAD was our motto. Our focus was to make an accurate product of a unitized lumber load for a flat car.
As time has progressed, we have added a variety of lumber and wood products to our product mix. Presently, we have related wood products as well as lighting products.
In all cases, we use REAL wood for our lumber products to provide the best prototypical appearance possible.
Lumber loads by Details-N-Scale fit a large number of lumber railroad cars in the model industry.
500 Series lumber loads which is designed for HO Scale 50 ft. flat cars,53 ft. GSC Flat Cars and those of similar design. Time frame for this load would be the 60's into the early 80's. Length of load is 46ft long.
600 Series lumber loads fit the longer bulkhead cars with scale length loads running 54ft to 56 ft. The old MDC's Roundhouse® and Athearn® bulkhead flat cars fit this series loads.
