40' Standard Box Car, Single Door
Part #MTL-20440 N Scale Supply Price: Reprint: May 2003 Both regular and low-profile wheels are included

This 40' standard box car with single Youngstown door is painted box car red with white logo and lettering. It was built in June 1952 by Pullman Standard. It runs on black Bettendorf trucks. One of the C&O's innovations in the years after World War II was to encourage standardization of freight equipment. In 1947, the C&O made requests for bids on 1,000 box cars. The idea was cars could be manufactured more cheaply and, if other railroads purchased the cars, be made standard. Pullman-Standard was the high bidder and manufactured this car to be known as the PS-1.
