Overview:
In 1974, ACF® built the first box car for Railbox, a subsidiary of the Trailer Train Company. They went on to produce 5,400 50’ cars over the next six years, receiving large orders from Class I railroads, shortlines and box car leasing companies who wanted to participate in Incentive Per Diem (IPD). This Atlas O Trainman® box car is a simple, but strong and stunning replica, with beautiful crisp printing that accurately depicts the prototype, and is designed to enhance your layout and provide many hours of reliable operation.
