Description
The HO FMC 5327 12′ Plug Door Box, CPR 224197 is a highly detailed model train boxcar that represents the mid-1970s era of railroading. This model is built with all new tooling that ensures accurate dimensions and features a photo-etched cross-over platform. It comes equipped with separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and a brake wheel, enhancing its realism.
With 33†machined metal wheels that have RP25 contours, this boxcar is weighted for optimum performance and utilizes body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers for better operational reliability. The injection-molded body is painted and printed to reflect realistic decoration, representing prototypical paint schemes accurately. The model is designed to navigate a minimum radius of 18â€ÂÂ, making it a perfect addition to any HO scale layout.
This model also includes the Primed for Grime feature, which duplicates the appearance of in-service equipment, showcasing faded base colors that match the prototypes well, and serves as an excellent starting point for enthusiasts looking to add grime and rust details to their models.
