Bachmann Trains - 50' Outside Braced Box Car with Flashing End of Train Device - Conrail #166313 - HO Scale, 14907

50' Outside Braced Box Car with Flashing End Of Train Device - CONRAIL #166313 - HO Scale. In the late 1980s, the classic railroad caboose was largely displaced by the implementation of flashing "End of Train" or "EOT" devices, also known as "FREDs" or "ETDs." On prototype trains, the device autonomously monitors brake line pressure and is capable of sending train data to the locomotive, while also providing a blinking warning light to alert any following trains to the presence of the train in front. Our 50'6" Boxcar with operating flashing "End of Train" device allows you to replicate this essential modern component on your HO scale freight consists. The Flashing Rear End Device is factory installed, operates on both DC and DCC layouts, and gives your train a modern finishing touch. Additional Features include: Operating Door, Highly Detailed Painted Body with Precision Graphics, Blackened machined-metal wheels with RP25 contours, Magnetically operated body mounted E-Mate® couplers, Blackened-brass axles with needlepoint bearings, Celcon trucks, and has added weight for optimum tracking. Bachmann also offers a separate End of Train Device that you can use to replace the rear truck/coupler on a variety of rolling stock.
