Description
An N-scale 50-foot FMC double-door offset boxcar, a ready-to-run model that faithfully reproduces the distinctive look of mid-1970s freight cars. It ships fully assembled with a detailed injection-molded body, weighted for smooth, trouble-free operation on Code 55 and Code 80 rails. The car rides on screw-mounted, roller-bearing trucks with machined metal wheels and McHenry knuckle couplers, and is painted and printed for realism. A clear plastic jewel box is included for storage, and the minimum radius is 9 3/4 inches.
For weathering enthusiasts, a primed-for-grime variant duplicates the in-service look with base colors faded to mirror the prototype and providing a perfect starting point for adding grime and rust. The model reflects the mid-1970s FMC boxcar program, featuring the 50-foot outside-post design with varied door configurations, a silhouette that remains a familiar sight on today’s railroading landscapes.
