HO 50' PC&F Smooth Side Box with 10'6" Door EFCX #1084 Plastic Model (ATHG68950)

HO-scale 50-foot PC&F smooth-side boxcar with a 10'6" door is a finely detailed plastic model designed to reproduce mid-century insulated boxcar service on HO layouts. Labeled EFCX 1084, this car captures the smooth-sided profile and door configuration typical of PC&F-built equipment, making it a realistic centerpiece for freight trains and dioramas.

Every detail is crafted to enhance authenticity: separate wire grab irons, etched metal coupler platforms, and an etched metal roofwalk, plus full underframe detail with an air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinder plumbing. The model is weighted for smooth operation, rides on trucks with animated rotating bearing caps, and uses body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers with trainline hoses and brake hoses. Machined RP25 wheels ensure reliable performance on common HO track, while accurate paint and printing heighten prototypical realism. The car’s minimum radius is 18 inches (22 inches recommended). Prototype background notes reflect 1960s insulated boxcars built by Pacific Car & Foundry for protecting cargo like canned goods, with variations in side panels and doors and full brake rigging.
