53' DOUBLE PLUG-DOOR BOXCAR
(Click thumbnail to enlarge)
or
This 53'
boxcar was manufactured in the 1960s and '70s
by Evans Company and was used primarily to haul
produce, wood and paper products, and canned
goods. The prototype is an insulated RBL
featuring a 16 foot opening and double plug
doors.
This special 2-Pack of
Commemorative Evans 53’ Double Plug Door Box Cars is the final

Dedicated to the day we will never forget – September 11, 2001 –
these cars are an accurate and lasting tribute to one of the
bleakest moments in recent United States history. The prototype

charity fund will be made for each 2-pack sold.
