Beginning in
the late 1960s,
American Car &
Foundry began
building 60’
boxcars spe-
cifically to provide more efficient service between automobile
assembly plants and auto parts suppliers. Both single- and dou-
ble-door versions of the auto parts cars were built with many
continuing in service today. Atlas plans to deliver HO scale
ready-to-run versions of the car in the second quarter of 2015.
Cars with single doors will be decorated for Conrail, Cotton
Belt, Norfolk & Western, and Western Maryland. Double-door

rated model will list at $23.95.
