Trinity 53' "RAF53C" 5-Unit Spine Car
|
The Models
|
|
The
Prototype
|
Finally! A ready-to-run spine car in N Scale! Don't worry, we've done our homework! As always, this project started with actual blueprints and measurements; the result is 100% authentic dimensions. Furthermore, like the prototype, the N Scale models were designed for versatility.
The models feature a die-cast metal frame and dozens of separately applied plastic and etched-metal components. From there, each car is painted to exact TTX yellow and lettered as appropriate for the RAF53C fleet.
These cars ride on our all-new 70-Ton ASF Ride Control truck with fine-scale metal wheels! On top of that, the cars feature body mounted Micro-Trains couplers! You can bet that empty or loaded, these cars will track, and look great as they glide down your rails.

Spine cars are one of the most recognizable freight cars on the rails today. Named after their simple, spine-like appearance, these versatile cars carry anything from highway trailers, to international, corrugated containers.

Item Description |

Stock Checks:
Inventory is a fluid commodity. It changes by the
hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure
we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each
year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order
in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm
that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order
it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson.
When we held items for customers’ orders, the order
never materialized 80%+ of the time. We lost out on
the orders placed while the item was on hold. Also
we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual
orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact
that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not
mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms
pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items
are available and if possible attempt to locate what we
don’t have while you are on the phone. |
