HO - Freight Cars
X32 50' Round Roof Box Car (Single
Door)

No other
freight cars looked quite like these round roof cars. They were visible in
freight yards all over America in the 1935-1960 era. These cars were first
called "funiture cars", but soon found use in the automobile
industry. The cars were equipped with Evans auto loader racks. The car started
to disappear in the mid 1950's. A drastic drop in the early 1960's left cars
that were still in service to be sold off or in most cases scrapped. Second
owners kept them in service well into the 1970's. They under went many
changes, such as. closing off the second door or removing it completely.
KIT INCLUDES: injection molded plastic body,
roof walk, brake wheel, X2f coupler, one piece molded coil semi-elliptic
spring trucks and 33' chilled wheels with RP-25 flanged on brass axles.
