In May 2022, Atlas announced that new Limited Edition Ukraine Peace Cars were available for pre-order, with all profits from the sales being donated to relief organizations.  This announcement was met with enthusiasm by model railroaders and pre-orders of the N & HO Trainman 50’6” Box Cars and O 40’ PS-1 Box Cars - which are decorated in a striking blue and yellow color scheme seen above -  exceeded expectations.

Atlas extends a heartfelt thanks to all of you who supported this effort.  Due to the support of consumers, dealers and distributors, orders placed to date have generated a total of $30,000 to be donated. These proceeds will be divided amongst the following organizations:
