Master(R) USRA 40' Rebuilt Steel Boxcar - Ready to Run -- Atlantic & Danville #2226 (Boxcar Red, Large Arrow Logo)

By the beginning of WWII, the majority of the classic USRA double-sheathed box cars and their clones were rebuilt with steel sides. More rebuilds followed in the late 1940s and early 1950s. By late 1948, close 14,000 of the original 24,500 USRA double-sheathed cars had been rebuilt with quite a degree of variation including the end, door and underframe. These steel side rebuilds were far more popular than their single-sheathed counterparts. These authentic models include: * Opening Door * Andrews Trucks * Ready-to-run * Accurate painting and printing * AccuMate(R) couplers * Brake detail * Highly detailed body * Simulated wood or steel door as per the prototype * Fishbelly or Standard underframe as per the prototype * Different rib ends (7-8 or 5-5-5) as per the prototype &
