. . . . . Just got a few photos from NZ of the painted sample [New 89' Piggyback Flat Car] model which will be on the way to WV shortly. . . . . . . . > > > > > > This will be a great car for us more forward looking (modern) modellers. We need to find out more about the prototype. Clicking the PROTOTYPE botton on the BTS site gives an extensive listing of prototype cars the BTS car can represent I see the only Trailer Train Company or TTX cars on that list have just TTX as their reporting letters. I believe there have been several other 89 foot TTX Company cars, including the RTTX and KTTX series. And there are 89 foot TTX cars that can take something other than two 40 foot trailers. I see in the Fallen Flags web site 89 foot cars with a hitch on each end, so it can take probably two trailers of 45 feet each, or anything else that will fit, like a 53 foot trailer and a 28 foot pup.
