50' Seico Pulpwood Flatcar RF&P #3862 HO

 
Walthers Proto RF&P road number 3862. Based on a prototype constructed by the Southern Iron and Equipment Company (SIECO) beginning in the 1960s, these purpose-built cars served well into the 2000s hauling pulpwood between the pulp landings in the woods and the paper mills. The open cars featured a V-sloped deck and tall bulkheads at each end of the car to keep the load in place. This is a one-time run of these roadnumbers. The model features:
 
Separately applied ladders
Factory-installed grab irons
Heavy die-cast metal frame
Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers
Correct 36'' RP-25 turned-metal wheelsets
