This HO scale model of SP 506299 represents the 1956 version
of Southern Pacific’s unique 53’ 6” F-70-7 bulkhead flat car with
the 6’ 5” tall bulkhead. SP modified the prototype in Los Angeles
from 1948-built AC&F riveted F-70-7 flat cars. SP used these cars
primarily for wallboard, or “plasterboard,” service as well as lum-
ber and equipment duty. This run of plastic cars has twelve road
numbers. For prototype information, see: railgoat.railfan.net/
spcars/byclass/flat.
