Rapido 804001 HO M60A1 Tank: US Army

Entering development in 1960, the M60A1 battle tank would prove to be an integral part of the US military’s arsenal and was produced in several variants. Production numbers for the M60A1 would total nearly 8000 units before being production ended in 1980. Seeing use widely for nearly 30 years, these tanks would be retired by the US military during the 1990s with the end of the cold war. Many however would be resold to other countries for continued service with many variants still in service as of 2024. These tanks would generally be loaded in pairs on the DODX’s fleet of Magor heavy duty flatcars and could be seen on the rails all across the USA.
