Description
An HO-scale 50-foot Pullman Standard box car, faithfully reproducing a common mid-1970s per diem freight car for HO layouts. This model is designed to deliver authentic scale proportions and a silhouette that works well in yard, branch, or mainline scenes.
Details include a single 10-foot Pullman Standard door, separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and a brake wheel, plus a photo-etch cross-over platform. The car rides on machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, is weighted for steady, reliable performance, and uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers. The injection-molded body is painted and printed for realistic decoration, and the minimum radius is 18 inches for operation on a wide range of layouts. Inspired by mid-1970s PS 50-foot outside-post, non-terminating end box cars, this model captures how these cars populated North American freight trains and makes a versatile, period-accurate addition to any collection.
