Now available for sale is an extremely rare, early or pre-production variation of the 2461 Flatcar with Transformer. This freight car differs from the production version with the following characteristics:

  • The freight car has no lettering nor numbers stamped onto the side of the flatcar.
  • The 2461 is rubber stamped on the base of the flatcar.
  • The red transformer has the Transformer Car decal on each side of the transformer -- while the regular production version has it only on one side.

Otherwise, this particular freight car has gorgeous exterior colors with a clean, complete, undamaged transformer -- that includes original, undamaged transformer coils! Overall, a beautiful looking freight car that has all four corner metal footsteps plus the functional staple-end trucks with coil couplers are free of rust and oxidation.

Also included is the original box and insert. The box has all flaps on one end (although most have clear tape on the interior) but is missing most flaps on the opposite end. Lastly, the original insert is included with the box.

If you're looking for an interesting or unique item that will set your collection apart from others -- this could be the perfect addition to your train room.
