I'm with you!
what is the length of these cars?
And once again no CNJ!
Manufacturers should always include accurate measurements!
If scale size, over thirteen and an eighth, maybe more depending upon coupler lengths.
The gondolas are advertised as "True scale dimensions", so the 13-1/8" quoted by BOBBYD would be accurate.
What, me worry?
I can confirm that the body measures just about 13-1/8" (that's 52'6" in 1:1 scale)...and the total length including 3-rail (claw) couplers is about 14-1/2".
I have 2 CSX (2-rail) gondolas coming later this week from Beth Marshall.
You better enjoy these while you can; I don't see any new Atlas anything coming down the pike for a long time.
What is the minimum radius on these?

I wrote to them about that one time. There was a locomotive I wanted but I had limited space and needed to know the length. They gave me the runaround. Not great customer service. It felt like they were annoyed at being challenged.

Didn't CSX come about long after friction bearing trucks vanished from interchange service?
Might still get a couple, just wonderin'
