Hi all,

Anyone bought one?

What is it modelled after? What are the basic dimensions i.e. length and width of the deck etc.??

Thanks!

They are exactly the same as all the Bachmann 1:22.5 flatcars ever made…

Thanks Dave!

I just found the actual dimensions on one of the sites that has them in stock. Too short in any case, but the price looks good. Maybe make one out of two… hmmmmmmmmmm nah!

Too short?

Same as an LGB.

What length do you show?

Dimensions shown at Hobbylinc.com

Length: 15-1/2" (394mm)
Width: 4-3/8" (110mm)
Height: 1-7/8" (47mm) --w/o stakes

Too short for a RhB flat!

How long is your whatever?

I have an old USA flat that is quite long.
Might be the length you are looking for, if still available.

17-3/4" long X 4" wide.

The catalog shows lots of them, but not stand-alone flats.
They have cars, or tanks, or whatever on them.
