This railroad was featured in the January 1987 issue of Model Railroader Magazine as well as the PBS series \"All About Trains\" Episode No. 12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNamed for his wife, the railroad became a regular operating spot of the community of model railroaders in the Shreveport area. This community is still strong and most of the layout has been saved, relocated, and is back in service!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the demand grew in the 70s for larger capacity boxcars, along with the need to replace aging 40’ cars, this series of 50’ double door boxes was produced by PC\u0026amp;F between 1972 and 1975. These boxcars are 50’-7” in length with a capacity of either 5258 cu ft for standard cars, or 5119 cu ft for those equipped for DF (Damage Free) Loading. All B-70 boxcars feature Hydra-Cushion underframes and were delivered with either Youngstown or Superior doors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PC\u0026amp;F 5258 is an amazing car for freelance application! Many freelance model railroads handle paper products at one end of the journey from origin to destination. This car type also could plausibly have been used in general merchandise service hauling any of a wide variety of commodities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparately applied metal grab irons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale sized draft gear with a detailed Hydra-Cushion underframe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull underbody brake rigging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple door styles as appropriate for each fleet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad number specific number patches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparately applied coupler cut levers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYoungstown double sliding doors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate door tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-installed Rapido semi-scale knuckle couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly tooled 70 ton trucks with turned metal 33” wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Home Shops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46885525455061,"sku":"HFB-032-003","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/home-shops-hfb-032-003-ho-scale-pc-f-5258-50-double-door-boxcar-sue-line-sl-23124.png?v=1713449779","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/products\/home-shops-hfb-032-003-ho-scale-pc-f-5258-50-double-door-boxcar-sue-line-sl-23124","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
