HO 50' PC&F Ex-Post Box (ATHG26901)

HO scale 50-foot PC&F Ex-Post Boxcar is a detailed model of a classic insulated boxcar used to move temperature-sensitive cargo such as canned goods. The model depicts a Pacific Car & Foundry-built car and captures prototype details such as varied side panel configurations and door types, along with a cushion underframe and full brake rigging for a realistic appearance on your layout.

From separately applied wire grab irons and etched metal coupler platforms to a weighted underframe with air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinders, the model emphasizes authentic operation. It rides on machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and uses body-mounted, scale-knuckle couplers. Additional detailing includes trainline hoses, brake hoses, lift bars, and rotating bearing caps on the trucks, all carefully painted and printed for prototypical realism. Built for HO-scale layout use, it performs best on curves with a minimum radius of 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for smoother, reliable operation.
