HO 40' Modern Box Car (ATH69443)

HO-scale 40-foot Modern Box Car — a faithful representation of the modernized 40-foot boxcars used in interchange service. This model reflects the era’s standardized design and the AAR-mandated updates from the late 1960s through 1978, giving it a convincing look for late-20th-century layouts.

Fully assembled and ready to run, the car features a detailed underbody brake system, machined metal wheels with RP25 profiles for smooth operation on popular brands of track, and body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers for authentic coupling. It is weighted for stable, reliable performance and can negotiate curves with a minimum radius of 18 inches, making it well suited for compact layouts.
