Looking for an authentic Canadian boxcar with a backstory that makes it one of a kind? The Rapido Trains Trenton Works 6348 cu.ft. boxcar in Canadian National colors, with its yellow reflective conspicuity stripes, is exactly that kind of car. Built between November 1993 and February 1994, these 300 cars first served in specialty wood products and lumber service all across Canada, with a strong presence in the province of Quebec soon after delivery — a detail that will resonate with your local customers. The safety stripes, added over the years to meet regulations, place this car in a more recent chapter of its career.
What sets this model apart is the prototype fidelity Rapido is known for. Designed from original blueprints and field measurements, it faithfully recreates this all-purpose boxcar right down to its quirks: unusually, these cars never received the French "Canadien National" spelling, instead wearing the traditional "Canadian National" look on both sides, with bilingual operational and warning labels. Redi Roof 1, Barber S-2 cast steel trucks, semi-scale couplers, and turned metal wheels: everything is there for a realistic car, ready to run in lumber service or general merchandise alike (2000s to today).
