HO 50' PC&F Boxcar with 8' and 8' YSD Plug Door (ATHG68990)

HO-scale PC&F 50-foot boxcar with 8-foot YSD plug doors is a faithful, ready-to-run model that recreates a mid‑1960s insulated boxcar used to protect temperature‑sensitive cargo. Built by Pacific Car & Foundry, this replica features authentic side panel construction and door types, a detailed cushion underframe, and full brake rigging, all brought to life with accurate painting for prototypical realism.

Designed for reliable operation on HO layouts, it includes separately applied grab irons, etched roofwalk, and a fully detailed underframe with air-brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinders. It’s weighted for smooth running and uses body-mounted scale double-shelf knuckle couplers, trucks with rotating bearing caps, and hardware such as trainline hoses and brake hoses. Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours ensure compatibility with most HO brands of track, while precise painting and printing enhance the prototype look. A minimum 18-inch radius is recommended for operation, with 22 inches or more preferred.
