O gauge weathered boxcars from Menards
The basics: O gauge boxcars with plastic body, metal wheels and couplers, and colorful graphics. The cars are gently weathered to simulate years of service. The cars are11 inches long, 2-3/8 inches wide, and 3-3/8 inches high. The cars can operate on O-27 or wider diameter curved track.
Why you need this: Almost every railroad enthusiast fondly recalls the days when freight cars were graffiti-free. What few remember is that these were working cars that got dirty, from rail, sleet, snow and sandstorms! There might even be some flaked paint and rust to be seen. Menards is helping freshen up the appearance of your railroad with cars that look like they’ve got a story to tell, but which have never been tagged by spray paint.
Road name and graphics are authentic and are stylishly applied. These freight cars are gently weathered with residue of what looks like several years of riding the rails. Like actual freight cars, the grime accumulates at spots where wind, rain, and snow force it to accumulate. The cars are rust and graffiti-free and the weathering does not obscure any detailing or lettering. The cars look like they have been in service, but have years to go before they’ll see a scrap line!
Thank you,
