Akron, Canton & Youngstown was the kind of regional carrier that kept Northeast Ohio industry moving for most of the 20th century, and this Micro-Trains weathered 50' standard boxcar — road number AC&Y 2320 — captures one of its workhorse cars after years of hard service. Factory-applied weathering brings out the boxcar-red base, dusty roof, and grime down the sides, so it looks right at home in any late-transition or modern manifest. Like every Micro-Trains freight car, it rolls smoothly on free-rolling Delrin trucks and comes ready to run straight out of the box.

What era is this boxcar appropriate for?
The Akron, Canton & Youngstown operated independently from 1907 until being absorbed by Norfolk Southern in 1982, so this car works on layouts from the late-steam era through the early-modern era — and is a great oddball for Northeast Ohio operators.
Is the weathering factory-applied?
Yes — Micro-Trains applies the weathering at the factory for a consistent, prototypical finish, so you can put this car right into service without spending an evening with an airbrush.
Are the couplers compatible with Kadee?
Yes. Micro-Trains Magne-Matic couplers are fully compatible with Kadee and other knuckle couplers — no swap needed to run with the rest of your fleet.
Does it have metal wheels?
It rolls on free-rolling Delrin trucks with contoured axles for smooth, low-friction operation. Add metal wheelsets if you prefer the added weight and rolling sound.
