HO 50' Exterior Post High Cube Plug Door Box Car (RND-2086)

HO Scale 50-Foot Exterior-Post High-Cube Plug-Door Box Car is a ready-to-run model that reproduces the tall, high-capacity boxcar design introduced in the late 1970s. This HO-scale freight car features a plug-door design and exterior-post construction for a realistic silhouette on your layout, making it a versatile addition to industrial or interchange-era scenes.

Key features include a separate brake wheel, machined wheels with RP25 contours for smooth tracking, and body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers for reliable operation. The car is fully assembled, weighted for optimum performance, and finished with a highly detailed injection-molded body painted and printed for realism. It fits HO layouts with a minimum radius of 18 inches, enabling smooth operation on most standard track. These cars were commonly used to haul canned goods, finished rolls of paper, appliances, furniture, and lumber, bringing authentic-era freight to mid-to-late 20th-century layouts.
