89' O gauge flatcar
Designed with a 1:48 scale deck to look and operate nicely with scale rolling stock, this flatcar is milled out of 3 pieces of white maple with a CNC milling machine. The 3 pieces are then glued together in a jig. The cedar deck is then separately applied. This custom machined train car is considered O gauge rather then O scale because the trucks are located too close to the ends.
Features:
-
18-8 stainless steel locking inserts are threaded into the deck by machine to ensure perpendicularity

Brand new Lionel 100 ton die-cast, sprung, rotating bearing cap trucks

Separately applied cedar deck. Every plank is cut to length and sanded to fit, but deliberately left uneven to add character
