HO PS 5277 Box Car CNW #163048 (ATH-1924)

An HO-scale PS-5277 box car in CNW livery (CNW 163048), this model reproduces a classic 50-foot Pullman Standard box car from the 1970s. It’s designed for HO layouts to portray CNW freight operations with era-true detailing.

Features include a single 10-foot Pullman Standard door, separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and a brake wheel, plus a photo-etch crossover platform for the couplers. Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and body-mounted operating scale knuckle couplers ensure smooth, reliable operation, while the injection-molded body is painted and printed for realistic decoration. The car is weighted for stable handling on typical layouts and negotiates curves with a minimum radius of 18 inches. This model reflects the mid-1970s per diem boxcar boom, with varied door configurations and bright lettering that still enhances CNW roster scenes.
