Good morning all,
I'm calling on some of you freight car experts that might could help point towards a fairly close model of this series of cars. Any help would be appreciated.May be an image of railroad and text

Thanks in advance,
Jason P.

Intermountain did a war emergency boxcar in HO. Believe they used this type of door on the ATSF release.

Jason,

 

I believe that Sunshine #29.11 is a kit that will build into that car.  I am currently working on the CNW version of the 10’ 6” IH War Emergency boxcar.

Certainly looks like a World War II “War Emergency” box car, several models available. The InterMountain one is very nice.

Side issue.  Didn't the ATSF one have narrower planks than the standard on other War Emergency boxcars? That might rule out the Sunshine one in HO if it replicates this?
