The Ready-to-Operate "6000" class Flat Cars of the D&RGW, and the "600" Class Flat Cars of the R.G.S. are now sold out! Carefully researched from the actual prototypes and modeled bolt for bolt, these cars were graced with die cast underframes for optimal weight distribution and good tracking,... Added to this were our highly detailed free-rolling trucks with their coined "Griffin-Denver" wheelsets and Genuine Kadee Couplers, these models had it all! Two distinct styles were produced: The Wood Buffer Plate style of the pre-1926 "rebuilding", and the Cast Steel Striker Plate type of those having been rebuilt in the twenties, 18 cars in all having been produced... This page features stellar photographs, at least four per car number for your enjoyment... Ya just gotta see 'em to believe 'em! All in "Sn3", of course... "Sn3" = 3/16" = 1'-0" Scale

- PLEASE BE PATIENT - MANY LARGE PHOTOS FOR SLIDE SHOWS LOADING -
