ABOUT
Safe-Pak History
In 1973 the first fully enclosed autorack railroad cars were designed by competing manufacturers to address the problem of increasing vandalism to new automobiles in transit.
The first production fully enclosed autorack railroad cars were delivered in late 1974 and early 1975.
The Whitehead & Kales company design, named Safe-Pak, were delivered to the ATSF, SBD, CSXT Patch, UP/WP, UP, WP, NW, SCL, FEC, and CPAA.
The Safe-Pak autorack cars were in service on US and Canadian railroads until the late 1990s.

from 80 reviewsincredible cars highly recomend

The cars arrived without damage and are nicely detailed and well manufactured.

Beautiful highly detailed model. Must have for your layout. Just a little light on weight. Free rolling, great paint and lettering.

This model has the highest details. It is one of a kind. I had never heard of it before. It's packaged in best packaging. Quick delivery by this company. I personally hope they produce more, one of a kind railroad equipment I can't wait to see what is next.

This is the best ready to run model Railroad car I have ever seen, bar non. The detail and quality is perfect and very accurate. Well done.

Very high quality model of a prototype not offered before. It is very much appreciated that such an accurate model is now available.

CHICAGO GREAT WESTERN LIGHT BLUE LUBE OIL LOADING GATC TANK CAR 1955-1970

Another beautiful model from Roka. These Santa Fe tank cars capture the prototype in every detail. The paint is outstanding as is the lettering. Every Santa Fe layout needs a string of these accurate models

Just received my two BNSF water tank car. The quality is excellent, lot of details that are perfect, fine and crisp. I'm so happy with this purchase that I will do business again. Keep the good work ROKA!

The CGW tank cars look and run great!

Car was pricy but very nice - wish I could several more of this same car in one of the other CGW paints.

The tank car is great! Clean paint with lots of detailed grating & tubing. I love it!
Two axles on one side were missing the rotating circular caps. I saw there was a bag of 4 extras & I learned how to install them.

Another great tank car from this company. Keep rolling these cars out.

I have over five hundred 2024 model Athearn Genesis, Scaletrains, Classonemodelworks and Walthers Proto cars and Bob Stears does it right! My Roka Auto Seaboard Systems auto rack is flawless. Everything about them, the paint is a cut above all of them, actual Kadee metal couplers (about time mfg’s) the car just oozes with quality from end to end. I have since purchased four more and preordered another four. I just wish he made more different types of cars. Even the packaging blows away any other mfg’s I have seen. If you want the best Roka is it!!!

Love my new CGW tank car, just like the one that lived outside the Larry Provo Training Center (Chicago & Northwestern RR) in West Chicago Illinois.
Fantastic details and lettering is perfectly legible, thank you
