Enhance your HO railroad with these WalthersMainline 50' ACF Exterior - Post Boxcars.

These boxcars are still in use today by Railbox and many other railroads, transporting all kinds of cargo. Key features include: a one - time run of these road numbers with limited quantity, so order now; prototypes that have been seen across the country from 1974 to the present; the ability to handle all types of general freight; usage by Railbox and dozens of other railroads; correct Plate B dimensions (41' 3' Truck Centers, 15' 2' Tall, 10' 8' Wide); fully assembled; correct 33' RP - 25 metal wheelsets; and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers.

Using these Walthers HO scale boxcars on your model railroad is easy. Just place them on the tracks and let them carry different types of 'cargo' on your layout. When handling, be gentle to avoid any damage to the couplers or wheelsets. For maintenance, keep them clean from dust and debris. You can use a soft brush to clean the body and wheels. Check the couplers regularly to make sure they're working properly. If they seem stiff, a little bit of lubricant can help. Store them in a dry place to prevent rust on the metal parts like the wheelsets and couplers.
