Upgrade your HO Scale intermodal fleet quickly with WaltherMainline Thrall Rebuilt 40' Well Cars. As 53' containers became the norm for domestic shipping, older 48' well cars lost popularity. Starting in 2003, Thrall rebuilt them to 40'. Now, they carry 20' and 40' containers in the well and 40' and 53' on top. This fully - assembled model, Walthers 910 - 8438, features a large black & white TTX logo with yellow conspicuity stripes. Note, the picture might show a different road number. Key features include: a one - time run of these road numbers (limited quantity), a heavy die - cast metal frame for great performance, finely molded 3 - D brake rods, separate deck - mounted brake details, 70 - ton roller bearing trucks, correct 33' RP - 25 turned metal wheelsets, and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers.

Using this well car model is easy. Just place it on your HO Scale track and it's ready to roll. You can load 20' and 40' containers in the well and 40' and 53' units on top to create a realistic intermodal scene. When handling the model, be gentle to avoid damaging the delicate brake rods and other details. To keep it in good condition, clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Since it's a limited - quantity item, handle it with extra care to preserve its value.
