Spurred by the postwar business boom and in an effort to replace worn out equipment, North American railroads built large numbers of 40' box cars to the AAR standard designs beginning in 1945. Prototypes were built with different combinations of roof styles, ends and doors. Our tooling includes many of the more common options for these details.

Features:

  • State of the art highly detailed tooling
  • Add-on details (ladders, grab irons, etc.).
  • 4 different end styles – 4/4, Early and Late Improved Dreadnaught or “Dartnot”
  • 2 different roofs – straight or diagonal panel
  • 3 different door openings – 6’,7’ and 8’
  • Superior or Youngstown doors
  • Seven or eight rung ladders
  • Easy to assemble fully detailed underframe
  • Free rolling trucks with blackened metal wheelsets
  • Carefully researched prototypical paint schemes
