All-New Release!
A 'Plate C' for your IPD.
Empowered by its acquisition of United States Railway Equipment (USRE,) Evans-USRE built box cars became the company standard during the IPD box car boom of the 1970s. With modern upgrades such as box-corrugated, non-terminating ends, Stanray X-panel overhanging roof, and riveted car sides near the end posts, the Evans 5277 is a classic box car of the IPD era.
A hallmark of the 1970's box car boom, ExactRail is the first-ever to tool the Evans-USRE 5277 plate C box car! Faithful to the prototype, ExactRail's Evans 5277 is dressed with authentic features and precision details. Complete with NRUC herald plates on appropriate box cars, wire form details, nailable steel floor, fully detailed draft boxes, ExactRail recreates one of the most common prototypes never offered in model form.
Recreate the diversity of the prototype with one of the most common boxcars of the modern era, innovate your rolling stock with ExactRail's Evolution
Series Evans 5277 box car.
