N AUTORACK 4-CAR SET AMTRAK
KAT1065508
Item Number: KAT1065508
Four Car Set road numbers: 9116, 9117, 9119, 9122
The Autorack (or "Auto Carrier") is a piece of railroad rolling stock built for a specific purpose - to transport cars. Commonly used to transport cars from the manufacturer to larger automotive distributors (before they're loaded onto the semis that are commonly seen on highways), they are also used on services such as Amtrak's Auto Train.
This particular type of Autorack is quite modern - first introduced in 2004 in Canada, this fully enclosed autorack is built with an Aluminum shell that is more weather resistant than the older style "open" or "grated" Autorack cars, and with a roomier interior and smoother ride that better protects the cars within. The Canadian variations of the Aluminum Autorack have thousands of tiny perforations on the sides, depicted on these models with precise and crisp printing.
Features:
- All wheel electrical pickup on blackened metal wheels promise a smooth ride with the capacity for aftermarket additions such as FREDs or other EOT lights.
- Modern appearance matching CN's perforated style.
- Packaged in a set of four individually numbered cars.
