Description
With Train Wheel Load.
Multi-media kit. Some assembly is required.
Built in 1941, this 50′ gondola with Bettendorf trucks was converted to a MOW wheel car in 1969 in a group of nearly 50 cars. The C&O was formed in 1869 in Virginia, and became a large Class I railroad on the East Coast, headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1972, it became part of the Chessie System, after merging with the B&O and Western Maryland. After several more mergers, the heritage of C&O lives on today as a part of CSX Transportation.
