Walthers Mainline HO 40' PS-1 Boxcar - RTR - Milwaukee Road #35046 (Boxcar Red, White; Full Name, Hiawathas Slogan)
As North American railroads began replacing war-weary equipment, many turned to Pullman-Standard and the brand-new 40' PS-1 Boxcar. Based on early postwar cars built from 1947 to 1949, this model is a great addition to steam and diesel-era layouts, as some of the prototypes were still in service into the late 1980s! Features of the WalthersMainline 40' PS-1 Boxcar include:
- Based on early postwar production cars with:
- Pullman-Standard ends (no rectangles)
- Pullman-Standard bowtie roof w/flat panels
- See-through Apex steel running board
- 6' Superior doors
- Correct 33" turned-metal wheelset
- Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers
