Flat Cars

CMC/CMT did not make the low-sided "machinery car" type of flat car; we have added this adaptable car to the line to carry many types of loads on your pike. It comes complete with red cedar wood load.

We have kept the CMT design for the bulkhead flat car, but have moved the bulkheads out closer to the ends of the frame where they belong, and added a load of pipe.

We are very proud of our new design, the drop-center flat car. To our knowledge, it is the only drop-center car made in Standard Gauge. To complement the car, we have given it a large cable reel as a load, with a classic logo dating back to the heyday of Standard Gauge. It is a bit longer than the rest of the freight cars, and of course the center hangs lower; rest assured we have tested the drop-center flat car and it runs fine over prewar Standard Gauge bridges and curves.
