N 50' NACC Boxcar Penguin Ginger Ale #7001 (ATH3871)

This N-scale Penguin Ginger Ale 50-foot NACC boxcar, No. 7001, is a detailed replica of a 50-foot outside-post insulated plug-door boxcar built by the North American Car Corporation. It’s designed for realistic freight operations on an N-scale layout, bringing a classic prototype to life with the Penguin Ginger Ale paint scheme.

Authentic detailing includes three road numbers, etched metal stirrup steps, a molded underframe, and plug-door doors with Pullman Standard or Stanray (Superior) roof options to match the prototype. It rides on N-scale 70-ton trucks with machined 33-inch metal wheels, uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers, and is weighted for stable, smooth operation on typical N-scale curves with a minimum radius of 9¾ inches. The NACC 50-foot outside-post insulated plug-door boxcar design dates to the 1960s, and many examples wore bold, complex paint schemes—Penguin Ginger Ale serves as a vivid tribute to that era on the layout.
