The torch car was originally a 56' UPRR Flatcar rebuilt by the Kansas Railcar Company into the Torch Car for the 1996 Atlanta Olympics torch train, and was upgraded with the the new design scheme for the 2002 Olympics. Several mechanical changes were made also. The biggest challenges was making sure the cauldron would stay lit while running at 70 MPH and not go out. Seven propane tanks were used, each holding 250 gals. They can provide enough fuel to last for 3 days. Electrical work also was done to make the cauldron more visible at night and a Bose sound system was installed. |
