Into classic boxcars? The Rapido Trains 1937 AAR 40' boxcar, in Canadian Pacific (Spans the World) colors, nails the look of these ubiquitous North American cars.
What sets this model apart is Rapido's signature prototype fidelity. This 40-foot steel boxcar — built to the standardized design the Association of American Railroads (AAR) adopted in 1937 and turned out by the tens of thousands across North America — features Dreadnaught ends, a 10-foot inside height and roughly 40-ton capacity. Rapido faithfully reproduces the riveted carbody, sliding door and version-specific detailing. Body-mounted knuckle couplers, free-rolling metal wheels and a fully detailed underframe: it is all here.
