CouplerMate
Rail Bogie is used to connect RoadRailers to rest of the
train. One will connect a whole string of RoadRailers.
If this "section" is at the end of the train,
only 1 CouplerMate is needed. If you wish to run the "cut" of
RoadRailers mid-train, you would then require 2 CouplerMates,
one for use at each end of the string. RoadRailer is not
included, available separately. |
"10,000
and Counting" Triple

with the rest of the Amtrak fleet.

Triple
Crown ex CN Dura Plate RoadRailers - New!
|
Triple
Crown Services operates the largest fleet of RoadRailers
in the world. Triple Crown was originally formed by Conrail
and Norfolk Southern to serve their priority customers.
Triple Crowns also run on CP and BNSF. The Triple Crowns
run in unit trains up to 125 units long -- so deLuxe
is offering multiple road #'s.
The latest in this series from deLuxe is a 6 pack of the Tan ex-CN Road Railers.
The 6 Pack includes 3 each of the Tan and 3 of the white scheme (as shown
above). A single car is also available in the Tan scheme. |

1st
Release - Smoothside DuraPlate Road Railer! |
What
is DuraPlate? The DuraPlate trailer sidewalls are made
of a remarkable composite material.
The DuraPlate material is composed of a polyethylene plastic
core sandwiched between two sheets of pre-painted (inner
and outer) high-strength galvanized steel. The result is
an efficient, lightweight, incredibly strong panel that
provides important advantages over both aluminum plate
and traditional sheet and post sidewall designs. Because
the DuraPlate material is stiffer than aluminum, the DuraPlate
trailer does not require the thin exterior posts used on
the plate trailer. The result: a smooth, "clean" outside
wall perfect for customer graphics.
Just like the prototype, the difference between the model
and our plate wall RoadRailer trailer is all in the body.
Train assembly and operation are exactly the same. The
first regular release for this body style is Canadian National.
CN began it's RoadRailer service between Montreal and Toronto
and then expanded it to Chicago. Then they began interchange
service with the BNSF RoadRailer train from Chicago to
California. These trailers are gray with silver trim and
black, white and red lettering and logos. The cartoon RoadRailer
train is reversed on the passenger-side so it always faces
forward. Like many of our RoadRailer releases, these are
available in 2 different 10 packs and a single for a total
of 21 different road numbers. Each 10 pack includes a CouplerMate
rail bogie.

TMM
Logistics RoadRailers
TMM
Logistics is affiliated with TFM railroad which is
affiliated with Kansas City Southern. When running
on rails, the TMM Logistics trailers are usually coupled
to the end of double stack container trains (usually
in blocks of 10 to 40 trailers.) These models represent
TMM¹s
second group of RoadRailer trailers. This group was leased
from builder Wabash National and most had been in the
Schneider National fleet at one time. These are 53'
PlateWall design
trailers which differ from TMM's original batch which
were of the DuraPlate design. Each RoadRailer train
requires
a CouplerMate (deLuxe #18000, available separately)
to connect
them to the locomotives or other type of car. This run
is available in 10 different road numbers.
