One of the most distinctive of the Milwaukee Road’s boxcars, these “rib side” cars stood out in freight trains all across the country with their distinctive horizontal stiffeners. Paint schemes here represent their use from 1939 to the late 1960s when some were converted with new load restraining devices or roof hatches. Milwaukee Road fans will want them all, but no matter what railroad you favor, you’ll want at least one to add some style to your boxcar fleet!
