Rapido 138003A HO Scale PRR 1960s Era F30A 50' Flat Car Single Car

HO Scale PRR F30 Flatcars

The Pennsylvania Railroad's class F30A flat cars were one of the most numerous classes of flat cars on that railroad with 1500 being built between 1933 and 1934. The PRR utilized a massive one-piece steel casting on these cars, and that sturdy construction meant that many lasted an incredibly long time. The cars were so successful that the PRR built another 250 nearly identical copies in 1951, classified as F30D.

Starting in 1954 the Pennsy converted many F30D flat cars into early piggyback service cars. These cars received perforated side rub rails, end loading ramps and four side posts.
