BLMA N: 53' Trinity 5-Unit Spine Car, TTAX #555085

The Prototype
  Spine cars are one of the most recognizable freight cars on the rails today.  Named after their simple, spine-like appearance, these versatile cars carry anything from highway trailers, to international, corrugated containers.  

  Built in late 1997 by Trinity Rail for TTX, these 5-Unit Spine Car's feature TTAX reporting marks.  While very similar to other 53' Trinity Spine Cars, the "RAF53C" class boasts nearly 250, 5-car sets on the TTX roster.

- The Models
  This is our second run of these ultra-popular models - the ready-to-run spine car in N Scale!  From your feedback, we're pleased to note the second run models will feature pre-assembled trailer hitches!

  Each model features a die-cast metal frame and dozens of separately applied plastic and etched-metal components.  From there, each car is painted to exact TTX yellow and lettered as appropriate for the RAF53C fleet.

  These cars ride on our 70-Ton ASF Ride Control truck with fine-scale metal wheels!  On top of that, the cars feature body mounted Micro-Trains couplers!  You can bet that empty or loaded, these cars will track and look great as they glide down your rails.
