HO 50' PC&F Ex-Post Boxcar D&RGW #61672 (ATHG26888)
HO-scale 50-foot ex-Post insulated boxcar, built by Pacific Car & Foundry for the Denver & Rio Grande Western as #61672. This detailed model reflects mid-century freight design, providing a prototypical boxcar for HO layouts and dioramas while illustrating how insulated cars protected temperature-sensitive loads.
Key features include separately applied wire grab irons and etched metal coupler platforms, a fully detailed underframe with air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinder with plumbing and brake rods, and weighted construction for steady performance. The model rides on machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for reliable operation on most HO track, uses body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers, and comes with trainline hoses and brake hardware. The injection-molded body is highly detailed and accurately painted, designed for realistic presentation on standard layouts. A minimum turning radius of 18 inches is recommended, with 22 inches ideal for smooth running.
