Included in these were two groups of boxcars in 1953 and 1955. These cars had six-foot doors, diagonal panel roof and twelve-panel riveted sides with straight sills. Between the two groups nearly 1000 cars were built.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first group, series 21450-21939 built in 1953, utilized the then current early improved dreadnaught end. The later 1955 group, series 5000-5499, were built with the updated late improved dreadnaught end – the difference between the two being the main rib shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth groups were delivered in the Great Northern’ s mineral brown scheme with a large goat herald. Over the years cars from these groups were repainted into the various colorful schemes that the GN developed through the late 1950s and into the 1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurate sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEarly or Late Improved Dreadnaught Ends as appropriate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiagonal panel roofs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurate welded underframes will full underbody piping and detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrect 6’ Youngstown doors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree rolling ASF Ride-Control trucks with turned metal wheelsets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRapido semi-scale couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccurate paint and lettering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple road numbers per scheme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: Road number may vary from picture shown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rapido Trains","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45581986267290,"sku":"679164093663","price":64.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/0480\/9626\/files\/s-l1600_a182c892-f633-4403-84d8-04d1df66705c.webp?v=1741289155","url":"https:\/\/orleanshobbies.ca\/products\/rapido-trains-155002a-ho-scale-40-boxcar-great-northern","provider":"Orleans Hobbies Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
