HO 50' FMC 5347 Box Car GMRC #722 (ATH18698)

This HO-scale FMC 50-foot boxcar in GMRC livery recreates a mid-1970s design that helped drive the era’s boxcar boom. The model features a newly tooled body with road-specific doors, separately applied grab irons, end ladders and a brake wheel, plus a photo-etched cross-over platform. It rides on 33-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers, and arrives fully painted and lettered for a lifelike appearance. Minimum radius compatibility is 18 inches, enabling smooth operation on standard HO layouts.

Prototype history notes explain FMC’s varied door configurations to tailor each car, and these boxes remain a familiar sight on today’s rails. This model brings that era to life with authentic detailing and careful decoration, making it ideal for era-accurate dioramas or contemporary scenes, and it pairs well with other HO rolling stock to recreate busy yards and freight trains.
