GSC 53'-6 Flat Cars

The paint and lettering of ExactRail’s GSC 53’-6 Flat Cars is industry leading. Of the 9 paint schemes being offered, we are offering four road number specific paint schemes! A road number specific paint scheme is a paint scheme that is precisely matched to a unique road number of a specific car. Generally, this isn’t relevant for factory painted cars. However, repainted cars often have differences that make them unique. With ExactRail offering road number specific paint schemes, a person is not just able to model a car type, a class of car, or a specific lot, but a person is able to go a step further and model the specific cars themselves!

It is a great time to be a model railroader!

The road number specific cars for GSC 53’-6 Flat Cars are:

  • ‘Maintenance of Way #900355’ Union Pacific GSC 53’-6 Flat Car with 42-0 Truck Centers.
  • ‘Maintenance of Way # 909447’ Union Pacific GSC 53’-6 Flat Car with 43’-3 Truck Centers
  • ‘Maintenance of Way #59560’ Union Pacific GSC 53’-6 Flat Car with 43’-3 Truck Centers
  • ‘Maintenance of Way #209098’ Santa Fe GSC 53’-6 Flat Car with 43’-3 Truck Centers

In addition to road number specific cars, ExactRail offers distinct replicas with unique left and right side artwork! Generally, the left and right sides differ due to inattentiveness when a car is repainted, such as the ‘Maintenance of Way #59560’ Union Pacific model. But sometimes, the prototype cars are delivered from the manufacturer with differences, as with the ‘1967 As Delivered’ Northern Pacific paint scheme of the GSC 53’-6 Flat Car with 42’-0 Truck Centers.

ExactRail is proud to offer freight cars with this level of detail!
