The ATLAS 50003974 is a 40' PS-1 box car representing the Seaboard Air Line #25253 in N scale (Part # 150 - 50003974). The 40' boxcar was a top - choice freight car when railroads switched from steam to diesel. The Pullman Standard or PS - 1 design was extremely popular among North American railroads. Built from 1947 to 1963, over 100,000 of these boxcars were produced, with some design elements varying by railroad and production year. This model comes with great features: body - mounted Accumate couplers, Barber S - 2A 50 - ton trucks with metal wheels, separately applied ladders, an etched metal roof walk, a 10' or 12' stiffener roof like the prototype, and Ajax and Miner brake wheels.

Using this ATLAS N scale box car is easy. Just place it on your model railroad tracks, and it's ready to roll with its body - mounted Accumate couplers. When handling it, be gentle to avoid damaging the separately applied ladders and etched metal roof walk. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the body and wheels. Check the couplers and trucks regularly to make sure they're in good working condition. Store it in a cool, dry place to prevent any damage from moisture or extreme temperatures.
