Operating Milk Car Platform Dimensions????
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, January 23, 2004 8:58 PM
Hi all,
Does anyone have the length and width dimensions of the platform that is used with operating milk cars?

I am making cardboard cut outs to test fit desired items on my 4 x 8 layout and have not been able to find the dimensions of the platform the milk cans are set out on.

Thanks,
Steven Crawford

The width of my milk car platform is 7 3/16". The overall depth is 5 1/16", but part of that is intended to be installed below the track. The depth of the platform itself is 2 13/16", so I think that's the dimension you'll need for your cut out.
