Description

This is Kato 106-5503 Autorack 4-Car Set CN. Autorack Canadian National 4-car set. Four car set road numbers: 712800, 712810, 712831, 712864. 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.

its key features are:
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
