Although not 100% accurate, Missouri Pacific had some 50 foot flat
cars (not 53'6") with 13 stake pockets, some of which were converted
for TOFC service and lasted into the 1970's. If you remove the
side-mount brake stand from the Athearn model it can serve as a
reasonable stand-in.

These are okay if you don't mind that the Athearn flat has no
protoype.
