1/87 1-320 Menzies Northern Pacific HO Metal/Wood Boxcar Craftsman Kit (Ex-Athearn)

Metal Model Kit

In the late 1940s/early 1950s there was a revolution in model railroading: high quality kits became available for the first time. Before this, there were few standard gauges and most railroads were scratch built to any gauge the collector desired. This kit is the Menzies reissue of the classic Athearn kit. These kits build very realistic models because parts that are metal on the real box car are metal in the kit; same for the wooden parts. All sides, doors and roof are fully decorated (and in mint condition), leaving very little painting. Includes wooden floor, opening doors, metal underside and detail fittings such as AB brake set, brake wheel, etc. Kit has not been started and is complete with all parts and instructions. These kits did not come with trucks, but I have included a good set of used boxcar trucks. These make great stand alone models or high-quality rolling stock for your line. Some modeling skills recommended.
