Original Packaging: Arrives brand new in the original factory packaging designed to safely store and protect the fragile details. Prototype History Introduced by Greenbrier/Gunderson in 2013, the Multi-Max autorack revolutionized automotive rail logistics. Designed to combat contemporary issues like graffiti, it features fewer and more tightly spaced side panel perforations to stop spray paint from passing through while still allowing vital airflow and light for loading crews. Additionally, the real-world prototype offers adjustable interior decks, allowing railroad car shops to transition the car between bi-level and tri-level configurations based on fluctuating shipping demands for cars, trucks, or SUVs. Handled under the BNSF fleet, these cars are key assets in high-priority automotive unit trains crossing North America. Layout Operating Tip: ScaleTrains recommends a 26-inch radius curve for optimal operational performance with this long-frame model, though it is rated to clear a minimum 24-inch radius.
