 O scale model of the MAMX 1001 18 axle railcar

This is a custom built O scale depressed center flatcar modeled after the Mammoet MAMX 1001 flatcar. This O scale railcar has 18 axles with a scale length of 146 feet 2 inches over the couplers. The model when completed is 36 inches long over the couplers. The depressed center portion of the model is a scale 35 feet long. The prototype MAMX 1001 is an 18 axle railcar that has a load limit of 792,000 pounds. The prototype depressed center flatcar allows for adjusting the load to either side to compensate for overhang on curves. The prototype flatcar load also can be adjusted vertically using hydraulic lifters to compensate for variations in the track.
