USA Trains 42ft and 29ft tank cars
Posted by EMD Trainman on Friday, October 15, 2010 7:21 PM

I'm a USA Trains fan so I will pass this news along. As many may know or not know that USA Trains has announced they are coming out with 42ft aluminum tank cars and 29ft aluminim tank cars which are knick named the beer tanks. I went to the East Coast Large Scale fall train show and found out they are now delayed on the shipping date. They were originally scheduled to be due out November 2010 and are now delayed to Spring 2011. I myself will be buying 6 42ft USA Trains tank cars.
