HO FMC 5327 12' Plug Door Box Car (ATH18674)

HO FMC 5327 plug-door box car is an HO-scale replica of a classic FMC boxcar from the 1970s, featuring a plug-door design and period-accurate detailing. It's a versatile addition to freight yards or mainline scenes, ideal for layouts that aim to capture mid-century railroading.

Built with all-new tooling and accurate dimensions, the model includes a photo-etched cross-over platform, plus separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and a brake wheel. It rides on 33-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, is weighted for smooth operation, and uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers. The injection-molded body is highly detailed and finished with authentic painting and printing to mirror prototype schemes, with a minimum radius of 18 inches recommended for reliable operation. For weathering enthusiasts, a Primed for grime variant delivers the look of in-service cars with faded base colors and provides a ready starting point for adding grime and rust.
