HO - Freight Cars
X32 50' Round Roof Box Car (Double 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.
