HO 50' PS 5277 Boxcar (ATH15962)

An HO-scale 50-foot Pullman Standard boxcar recreates a mid-1970s prototype for authentic freight scenes on an HO layout. It combines era-appropriate detailing with reliable, smooth operation, making it a credible centerpiece for both display and routine running.

Key features include a single 10-foot Pullman Standard door, separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and a brake wheel, plus a photo-etched cross-over platform for the couplers. Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours deliver realistic tracking, and the car is weighted for steady, dependable performance. Body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers enable prototypical coupling, while the injection-molded body is highly detailed and finished with authentic paint and lettering. A minimum radius of 18 inches applies, and the design reflects the era’s varied door configurations and the 50-foot outside-post boxcars that were common during the mid-1970s per diem boom.
