Description
An HO-scale recreation of the Magor 54-foot flatcar, built to transport tanks and other military hardware across the rail network during the Korean War era. The model captures the 54-foot length with a wood deck, heavy steel frame, and authentic Buckeye 3-axle trucks, reflecting the rugged design and a 100-ton payload capacity of the era’s heavy flatcars.
Details are drawn from original blueprints and include a fully detailed underframe with piping and equipment, metal knuckle couplers, a simulated wood deck, and wire grab irons and stirrups. The green, unlettered single-car edition offers a period-correct finish that pairs well with other mid-century models for dioramas and layout scenes.
