Rocket Car Close-Ups

Some close-up photo of the details of these cars to help you with modeling them.

The Cover is the same on both halves. There are some different lift rings used on the covers.

The cover has small rollers on the ends that are guided into place by tracks bolted to the flat cars. The covers are held in place by "T" bolts also seen in these photos. The tag is on the center line of the cover.

Close-ups of four truck two axle heavy duty flat car UP 50026.

Other Cars seen at the Thiokol Plant

Box Cars can also be seen here delivering supplies for the building rocket motors.

These cars have also been seen at the rocket loading plant. I don't know what they are used for. These are use hauling something to or from Thiokol, but I don't know what.
