{"product_id":"ath-2062","title":"HO 50' Youngstown Plug Door Box Car DRGW #60857 (ATH-2062)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eHO-scale 50-foot Youngstown insulated plug-door box car in DRGW livery, road number 60857, is a detailed model built for authentic mid‑century freight operations. It recreates the insulated boxcar concept of the era, with plug doors that slide closed to form a tight seal, making it ideal for depicting temperature‑sensitive shipments on HO layouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eNotable features include separately applied brake wheel and ladders, 70-ton roller bearing trucks, 33-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, and a weighted body for stable running, along with body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers for reliable linking with other cars. The injection‑molded body is highly detailed and finished with realistic paint and printing to match prototypical DRGW schemes; a minimum radius of 18 inches helps ensure smooth operation on common HO track layouts. Historically, insulated boxcars emerged in the early 1950s as 50-foot cars with plug doors that opened along the tracks, keeping cargo within a few degrees of its original temperature for days—ideal for perishables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47906384740404,"sku":"ATH-2062","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH-2062.jpg?v=1781648962","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath-2062","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
