Atlas 50005700 NKP - Nickel Plate Road #84094 (Boxcar Red, black, white) 50' GA RBL Plug-Door Boxcar N Scale

The Atlas 50005700 NKP N Scale 50' GA RBL Plug-Door Boxcar, numbered #84094 of the Nickel Plate Road, comes in boxcar red, black, and white. Note that the picture might show a different road number. Designed in the early 1960s, this 50’ General American Corporation RBL car was revolutionary. Its all-welded body construction and a wide range of load restraining devices made it a hit. It was originally for canned goods and newsprint but later became popular for beverages and perishables. Without actual refrigeration, it can keep the temperature of a refrigerated load stable within a few degrees for several days in transit. Key features include being ready to run, made of injection-molded plastic, with fine scale details, separately applied wire cut levers, etched metal roofwalks, crisp painting/printing, and etched metal crossover platforms.

Using this N scale boxcar is a breeze. It's ready to run right out of the box, so you can quickly add it to your model train setup. When handling it, be gentle to avoid damaging the fine scale details and the separately applied wire cut levers. To keep it looking great, use a soft, dry cloth to dust it regularly. Don't use any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they could scratch the painted finish. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading. If you notice any parts getting loose, you can use a small amount of model glue to reattach them carefully. Enjoy adding this high - quality boxcar to your collection!
