Athearn ATH15964 RBOX RailBox #43696 - PS 5277 Single Door Boxcar HO Scale

The Athearn ATH15964 RBOX RailBox #43696 is an HO scale PS 5277 single door boxcar model. It features a single 10’ Pullman Standard door, separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and a brake wheel. The photo - etch coupler cross - over platform adds a great level of detail. With machined metal wheels having RP25 contours and being weighted for top - notch performance, it ensures smooth operation. The body - mounted McHenry® operating scale knuckle couplers are a great addition. The highly - detailed, injection - molded body is painted and printed realistically. It has a minimum radius of 18”. In the mid - 1970s, Pullman Standard built many of these per - diem box cars, which can still be seen in modern railroads today.

Using this Athearn HO scale boxcar model is easy. First, find a suitable railway track with a minimum radius of 18 inches. Place the boxcar gently on the track. The body - mounted McHenry® couplers allow you to connect it easily to other cars in your train set. When handling the model, be careful with the separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and the brake wheel as they are delicate. Avoid dropping the model to prevent damage to the machined metal wheels. To keep it in good condition, clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. If there is dirt in hard - to - reach places, use a small brush. Store the boxcar in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the paint from fading.
