HO GEN 50' PC&F Box Car with Youngstown Plug Doors (ATHG-2182)

HO scale 50-foot PC&F boxcar with Youngstown plug doors is a highly detailed model designed for authentic operation on HO layouts. It reproduces the prototype with separate wire grab irons, etched door platforms, and an etched roofwalk, plus full underframe detail including air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake plumbing. Weighted for smooth running, it rides on machined RP25 wheels with body-mounted scale double-shelf knuckle couplers for reliable coupling on standard tracks. The finely painted, printed shell captures prototypical realism, and the injection-molded body delivers crisp detail. With an 18-inch minimum radius (22 inches recommended) and a grime-ready finish, it’s ready to weather toward an in-service look.

Southern Pacific-liveried variant adds 6-foot and 8-foot Youngstown plug doors and Hydra Cushion suspension for authentic operation. It shares the same level of detail—wire grab irons, etched platforms, underframe detail, and weighted body—along with McHenry scale couplers and RP25 wheels for smooth running. Prototypical SP branding and precise lettering complete the look, while the grime-ready finish supports realistic weathering to create a convincing in-service appearance on HO layouts.
