Introduction

Walthers Mainline 910-2396 HO Scale PS-1 40′ Boxcar Western Pacific WP 20809

As North American railroads began replacing war-weary equipment, many turned to Pullman-Standard and the brand-new 40′ PS-1 boxcar. Based on early postwar cars built from 1947 to 1949, this new WalthersMainline model is a great addition to steam- and diesel-era layouts, as some of the protoypes were still in service into the late 1980s! Features of the HO Scale models include:

• Based on early postwar production cars with:
• Pullman-Standard ends (no rectangles)
• Pullman-Standard bowtie roof w/flat panels
• See-through Apex steel running board
• 6′ Superior doors
• 2 different car numbers for each each roadname
• Correct 33″ turned-metal wheelset
• Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers
