Modeling the ABWX 20001 well hole flatcar

 

Here is a very unusual well hole flatcar designed to transport large transformers.  The load is mounted in the well and is supported by side rails unlike the usual depressed center cars. According to available data it was built in 1967.  Model photos of an O scale model.
