Item #170301 Single
Item #170306 6 pack

This is a model of the Flat Side (sometimes called interior post) chip car. Southern Pacific had the largest fleet of this type of wood chip gondola and most of that fleet is still in the paint scheme you see here. Most often used to carry wood chips for making paper and particle board, these cars can also be found hauling recycled aluminum from cities to smelters. The prototypes have solid ends so they have to be rotary dumped, unloaded with a bucket loader, or in some cases, giant vacuums are used to suck out the wood chips! Since wood chip gondolas usually move in groups, we are making this release available in singles and in 6 packs for a total of seven different road numbers. They are equipped high quality fine rolling trucks and Accumate magnetically operating knuckle style couplers.
