HO PC&F 5241 Cubic Foot Boxcar B&M - Guilford Single Car #1 (RPI198003A)

An HO-scale PC&F 5241-cubic-foot boxcar in the Boston & Maine (B&M) Guilford single-car scheme, identified as Single Car #1, this model recreates the distinctive Berlin Mills boxcar look from the Incentive Pier Diem era. Noted for its flat roof and large end ribs, the car stands out among late-era IPD designs and evokes pulp and paper traffic that once moved across New England and the Pacific Northwest. It’s an ideal subject for adding period accuracy to a layout that focuses on 1980s–1990s freight.

Designed for scale realism and reliable operation on HO layouts, the model features prototype-accurate dimensions, three door styles, full underbody detail, and separate wire grab irons. It rides on free-rolling trucks with turned metal wheels and uses Rapido semi-scale metal couplers for smooth, quiet operation. With accurate paint and decoration and multiple road numbers per scheme, it’s a versatile addition for authentic era scenes—whether in a yard, on a mainline, or near paper-mill facilities.
