Overview:

With their structural bracing exposed on the outside, single-sheathed boxcars provided a flat interior wall for securing the loads. Common from the 1910s into the steam/diesel transition era, these cars offer a distinctive variation in your boxcar fleet. Lionel's cars feature realistic molded in details for added durability and lower costs making it easy to round out a freight train suitable for your steam and diesel locomotives.
