169' 3 Track Carfloat Kit This kit represents a 3 Track Carfloat built in the early 1950's and was used in the everyday transfer of freight cars from shore to shore including many interchange operations between differnet railroads. It features a welded steel hull and will accommodate 8, 40' rail cars (3 per outer set of rail and 2 on the middle). Our kit consists of highly detailed resin castings featuring scale weld lines, scuttle hatches, cleat bases and toggle pockets already cast in place. The parts in this kit require very little cleanup allowing quick assembly time. One of the unique details of our kit is the Micro Engineering Company's code 100 nickel silver rail cast into place on the deck allowing you the option of electrifying your track. Highly detailed Britannia metal castings including cleats, bridge hooks, and tire bumpers along with rope and chain allow you to build an accurate model of a very recognizable, everyday element of water front operations. Looks great with one of our 92' Diesel Railroad Tugboats or 92' Steam Railroad Tugboats pushing it! *Note: We have designed our Carfloat Kit using prototype drawings and photos. We have tried to get as close to prototype dimensions as possible. We make no claims as to compatibility with other manufacturer's carfloat and/or float bridge dimensions. We do plan to release a float bridge kit in the future. Please check back! #152 HO (1/87) Scale 3 Track Carfloat $125.00 Preorder today! Shipping date: 2/15/12 |
