Early U.S. Skeleton Log Car
Another.. eh, why not lets do it!
I bring to you today a simple skeleton logging car! I don’t really have much information for this, it again was lets get it done.
– 2 Logging cars, 32 footer and a 38 footer.
– All CUSTOM and RANDOM loads!!!!! Huzzah!! There are 7 Custom loads! Only 6 are random as I thought it would look odd have a giant log mixed with the rest that it would look off/weird.
– 1 32 & 38 foot cars have random loads.
– 1 32 and 38 foot cars have a single huge log on them.. think of this as a giant sequoia tree being hauled around.
– ASSETS!!!!! There are 16 assets! Each custom load has a corresponding asset along with empties.
– Coupler by model citizen
– RECOLORABLE!
32 Foot random loads
– Date of Appearance- 1865
– Speed – 40 MPH
– Weight – 5.5 tons
– Capacity – 9 (random load) Logs
32 Foot Huge Log car
– date of Appearance- 1865
– Speed – 40 MPH
– Weight – 7.2 tons
– Capacity – 10 Logs
38 Foot random Loads
– Date of Appearance – 1880
– Speed – 50 MPH
– Weight – 11 Tons
– Capacity – 12 Logs
38 Foot Huge Log
– Date of Appearance – 1880
– Speed – 50 MPH
– Weight – 15 tons
– Capacity – 13 Logs
So for the large log cars I was thinking for the extra carrying capacity to just notch up the weight a little bit.
Well this was a outa no where quick project, but upcoming will be the Union Pacific 119 and variations, along with the St. Paul and Pacific style coach train set. Enjoy you heavy logging trains! See you on the next one!
