HO GEN 50' PC&F Box Car with 14' Plug Door SSW #23562 (ATHG-2211)

This HO-scale 50-foot PC&F boxcar with a plug door is a finely detailed model designed for realistic operation on standard HO layouts. It captures the look of a real PC&F freight car and is ready to run on most model railroad setups.

Features include separate wire grab irons and etched coupler platforms, full underframe detail with air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinder, plus a weighted chassis for reliable, smooth running. The trucks use machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and feature rotating bearing caps, while body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers and a highly detailed injection-molded body enhance realism. Painted and printed for prototypical accuracy, the car requires an 18-inch minimum radius (22 inches recommended) and is primed for grime—providing a natural starting point for weathering to mimic an in-service look with faded base colors and rust or grime details.
