O B&P 40′ High Cube Boxcar

SKU: MTH3074847 Category:
Scale: 1/48Discontinued
MSRP: $54.95Minimum Quantity: 1
 

With an interior height of about 13 feet – 2 feet more than a
standard box car – this car is known as a “hi-roof” or “high cube” car
for its high cubic capacity. White end panels make railroad crews aware
of its extra height, which prevents it from traveling in some areas.

This 40′ 65-ton car is designed specifically for the modern
printing industry, which uses large rolls of paper too big for standard
box cars. Side-to-floor joints and doorframes are reinforced to
accommodate the heavy weight of paper rolls. Longer 60′ versions of
this design are widely used for transporting parts for car
manufacturing.

High quality, traditionally sized RailKing Freight Cars
provide detailed bodies and colorful paint schemes for the O Gauge
railroader. MTH makes an enormous variety of RailKing Freight Cars,
including many different car types and roadnames. No matter what era or
part of the country you are modeling, RailKing is sure to have
something for you.
