HO 50' PC&F Boxcar EFCX #3961 (ATHG68995)

An HO-scale 50-foot Pacific Car & Foundry insulated boxcar with plug doors, designed to model mid-century temperature-controlled freight operations. This replica mirrors the PC&F design used for can loads and other cargo needing protection from temperature extremes, with prototype variations in side panels and door styles that reflect real equipment from the era.

Detail is thorough: separately applied wire grab irons, etched roofwalk and coupler platforms, and full underframe detail including an air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinder with plumbing, all on a weighted chassis for stable running. The trucks feature machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and animated bearing caps, while body-mounted scale knuckle couplers are paired with trainline hoses and brake hoses for authentic operation. Finished with accurate paint and printing, the injection-molded body delivers durability and full brake rigging, and it’s designed to run on standard HO track with an 18-inch minimum radius (22 inches recommended).
