This is a very nice looking B. and O. box car. This car should sell very well. The blue and yellow paint scheme always jumped out at me.

Do you know if these cars of scale proportions?

Norm,
Gunrunnerjohn had a excellent post regarding the size of these cars compared to other scale cars. If I remember correctly they are extremely close.
They are a bit bigger than a Lionel 9700 series. Catwalk is about 10 ½” long.
Here is GRJ's review of the Reading cars.
Thanks,Jim.
Norm,
The best thing for you to do is to purchase one. I think for the price they can't be beat. Menard's freight cars and buildings are receiving a lot of favorable comments on this forum.
Growing up a half mile from the B&O Pittsburgh and Western line, I'll sure pick up one of those! Looks good!!
Nice B&O boxcar hope to get one in a couple weeks if don't get sold out!
I just looked at their website yesterday and didn't see this car. Would they come and go that fast? Maybe we had better not wait until payday, Jeff!

Mark,
If you go to the O-Gauge Train Page in the Menard's Website and click on the green icon that states "Shop All Trains", it will take you to a page that begins to list all items for sale....you will need to click to go to the second page and the B&O Car is listed there.
