The car is essentially a long flat car with a pivot in the middle and a third truck under the joint, so it can work tight curves and narrow industrial spurs where a conventional long flat would overhang — and the extra truck spreads the weight so it can carry more containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAtlas's all-new Master Line HO model is Environmental Protection \u0026amp; Improvement Co.
