Value Trains 40-217 — a fully assembled HO scale 40' PS-1 boxcar decorated in the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy "Burlington Route" gold scheme, road number 61417. The PS-1 was the workhorse Pullman-Standard boxcar of the 1950s and 60s, and CB&Q's clean gold-and-black "Burlington" lettering with the famous Burlington Route herald looks right at home on any granger or transition-era layout. Crisp graphics, factory-applied details, and Kadee-style metal knuckle couplers come ready to run right out of the box.
