Description:
Both of Canada’s two major railways started piggyback (TOFC) services in the 1950’s. By the late 60’s early 70’s this traffic had grown substantially and both railroads saw a need to purchase purpose-built flatcars that could handle both 26-foot and longer trailers, up to the then-new standard of 45-foot.

The Canadian Piggyback Flatcar features:
• Drawn from original blueprints
• Two styles of hitches; upright and collapsed
• Artworks sourced from original design drawings
• Wire grab irons
• Heavy die-cast center sill
• Barber S-2 trucks with metal wheels
• Photo-etched deck surface
• Rapido semi-scale metal knuckle couplers
