PROTOTYPE HISTORY:
The modern 100-ton, high-cube, 60-foot boxcar is a common sight on today's railroads. It can carry all kinds of loads, from auto parts to forest products. These boxcars are a must-have for any modern freight train model.
This ready-to-run model accurately depicts a Gunderson-built boxcar. Many paint schemes similar to those of Trenton/Greenbrier-built cars are also available as great alternatives.
Specifications
Using this Athearn HO scale boxcar is a breeze. Since it's fully assembled, you can just take it out of the box and place it on your model railroad tracks. It's ready to run right away. When connecting it to other cars, use the McHenry scale knuckle couplers carefully to ensure a proper connection. As for maintenance, keep it away from dust and dirt. You can use a soft brush to gently clean the wheels and the body. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture as this can damage the paint and the parts. And remember, it's recommended for users 14 years and older, so keep it out of reach of younger kids.
