HO 50' FMC Combo Door Box RTR (ATH26735)

The HO RTR 50' FMC Combo Door Box is a finely detailed model that brings realism to any model railroad layout. It comes fully assembled, featuring a machined metal wheel set that operates on all popular brands of track, complemented by body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers. This box car boasts a highly detailed, injection-molded body that is accurately painted and printed for prototypical realism, making it an excellent addition to any collection.

Designed with optimal performance in mind, the car is weighted appropriately and requires a minimum radius of 18 inches for operation. It also includes separately applied wire grab irons and etched end platforms, enhancing its overall detail. For those seeking a unique touch, models primed for grime reflect a realistic in-service appearance with faded base colors and a perfect starting point for adding additional weathering effects like grime and rust that can be characteristic of rail freight cars. The 50' FMC cars, produced by Food Machinery Corporation in the 1970s, remain relevant in the modern railroading scene, celebrating the evolution of box car design and function.
