<p>[quote user="cascadenorthernrr"]</p> <p>Hello all, I started a thread a few days ago about jumbo tank cars and I decided to start this thread about unique railcars that includes both passenger and freight equipment. By unique I mean oversize, over length, or just plain unusual. I look forward to your replies! </p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>There are quite a few interesting cars out there under the DODX reporting mark, tank transporters, nucear missile cars (giant box car, there was a thread a while back), nuclear reactor transport flatcars, once upon a time a helium car I think (a little fuzzy on that one).</p> <p>Other items:</p> <p>Depressed center flats with all manner of interesting things, boilers, large transformers.</p> <p>Circus Train! Which will be gone by the end of the year.</p> <p> Flat cars with locomotives on them, either being transported for restoration or scrap.</p> <p>Flexi-van trailer (minus bogie) on flatcar (watch the NYC's promotional video, its pretty neat).</p> <p>Welded rail train.</p> <p>Schnabel.</p>
