Walthers 910-46019 50' ACF EP Boxcar RI Rock Island #36057 HO Scale

Here's a fantastic WalthersMainline boxcar model ideal for HO layouts from the 1970s onwards! Due to a shortage of suitable boxcars, many railroads started using larger 50' American Car & Foundry Exterior Post Plate B Boxcars. Introduced in 1971, these cars with the popular Dreadnaught end were used in general freight service for years. Our layout - ready and durable models have these great features: a one - time run of these road numbers with limited quantity, so order now! They're based on prototypes seen across the country from 1971 to today. They can handle all kinds of general freight, were used by dozens of railroads, have Dreadnaught ends, a Stanray diagonal panel roof, and correct Plate B dimensions (41' 3' Truck Centers, 15' 2' Tall, 10' 8' Wide). They're fully assembled, come with correct 33' RP - 25 metal wheelsets, and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers.

Using this Walthers HO scale boxcar model is easy. Just place it on your HO layout, and it's ready to go. It's great for creating a realistic 1970s or later railroad scene. When handling the model, be gentle to avoid any damage to the delicate parts like the couplers and wheelsets. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to dust it regularly. If there's some dirt that won't come off with a cloth, you can use a very mild cleaning solution on a cloth and gently wipe the surface. Avoid getting water inside the model as it may damage the internal parts. Store the boxcar in a cool, dry place to keep it in good condition.
