Specialized load handling equipment has long been used to secure loads in railroad freight service. One of the most common forms used on flatcars is the addition of bulkheads to the ends of the car. Bulkhead ends not only make it easy to load pulpwood, but also keep regular items like lumber, building materials and pipe loads from shifting in transit.

This release includes three road numbers in six schemes.

Features:

• Era: Mid 1970's to mid 1990's
• Bulkheads include end ladders
• Fully-assembled and ready to run out of the box
