Reply to "O Scale Freight Car Guide: Intermodal Cars"

I recently started an intermodal project that has really added some cool cars to my intermodal fleet. I obtained several K-Line 40’ Thrall and Gunderson cars for this project. Here are a couple pics. The BNSF set was made using the Gunderson cars. I had a machine shop cut the ends off the articulated cars and added some Evergreen plastic to build the ends and undercarriage. Also note the brake system with brass tubing.

the Thrall set was made by removing the ends altogether on all the cars and building correct size platforms for eacH end of car. Altogether I have 3  40’ well Thrall 5-car sets and 3 Gunderson sets using the 40’ wells. I had custom decals made for TTX in their new logo design for some of these sets. More pics to follow. 

I also have several stand alone 40’ well cars in both Thrall and Gunderson.
