Walthers 60' Bulkhead Flat Car
Author: LinerOps

Walthers has just released their Mainline 60' bulkhead flat car.   Is the Trailer Train yellow car a correct paint scheme?   I have only found pictures of the car in the Trailer Train brown and the TT brown with the B&O markings.

There were some 60' bulkheads were in yellow.  The side sill on these seem to have been 'beefed" up somewhat

And as it happens, Walthers chose those numbers for their yellow PTTX bulkheads, so they don't match these prototypes as modified/beefed, if that matters.

As anyone identified any of the yellow PTTX PS bulkheads with the sides not modified?  So far I've not found any.  The dates of the two above were 1979 wich is right in my modeling era so those don't match.

Cheers,
Jim

Does anyone know if the Weyerhauser CLC paint scheme for the Walthers 60' bulkhead flat car is correct?  I cannot find any actual pictures of it.
