The Athearn ATHG26864 HO scale 50' SIECO boxcar of N&W Norfolk & Western #57829 offers high - quality features. It has separately applied grab irons, end ladders and brake wheel, a photoetched cross - over platform, and 33” machined metal wheels with RP25 contours. The body is highly - detailed, injection - molded, painted and printed realistically. It's weighted for great performance and has a minimum radius of 18”. The primed for grime models feature a realistic 'In Service' look, faded base colors matching the prototype, and are a perfect start for adding grime and rust. It comes with McHenry Scale Knuckle couplers, is recommended for ages 14 and up, and requires no assembly.

Using this Athearn HO scale boxcar is easy. Just place it on your HO scale track and let it roll along. Since it doesn't require assembly, you can start using it right out of the box. When handling the boxcar, be gentle with the separately applied grab irons, end ladders and brake wheel as they can be fragile. Keep it away from sharp objects to avoid damaging the highly - detailed body. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to clean the body regularly. If you want to add grime and rust as it's primed for that, use appropriate model - friendly paints and tools. Make sure to store it in a cool, dry place to prevent any damage to the painted and printed details. Also, keep it out of reach of children under 14 years old as recommended.
