HO Athearn 60' Gunderson High Cube Double Door Box Car CSXT #173307 (ATH-2274)

An HO-scale 60-foot Gunderson high-cube double-door box car, CSX 173307, this detailed model provides a faithful representation of a Gunderson-built freight car used on modern railroads to haul a wide range of loads.

It adds authentic prototypical freight traffic to HO layouts and features separately applied wire grab irons and etched end platforms, body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers, and razor-sharp painting and printing for crisp detail. The model is weighted for smooth operation and rides on 36-inch metal wheels with RP25 contours, with a minimum radius of 18 inches (22 inches recommended for best performance). It wears a primed-for-grime finish that suggests an in-service look and is a great starting point for weathering with grime and rust. Real-world Gunderson-built boxcars carried everything from auto parts to forest products, so this model can represent a broad range of prototypical freight operations; similar paint schemes from closely related Trenton/Greenbrier-built cars are offered as close stand-ins.
