This is a perfect gift for the ultimate sports fan. A full-zip 2226660 – SOUTHERN END DOOR BOXCAR #42000 is the perfect item for any baseball fan.
Equipped for hauling automobiles or other large loads, end door boxcars offered a railroad’s customers more versatility in loading or unloading. Cars of this design were relatively common from the 1930s to the 1960s when larger cars and multi-level auto-racks came onto the scene. Cars only had doors at one end and often had to be turned for loading or unloading – an extra challenge for model railroad operations.
