Description
HO Scale Athearn Volclay 50′ Plug Door Box Car VOLX #101
Manufacturer: Athearn
MFG’s Item #: 5276
Roadname: Volclay
Actual Condition: Okay (with issues: cracked shell and missing stirrups)
Extra Info: Used, Kit
This Athearn blue box car features a finely printed shell with good lettering, a metal weight that gets installed under a plastic floorboard and above the underlying plastic frame, frame-mounted coupler pockets, and plastic trucks with low profile plastic wheels that have metal axles. NMRA standard hornhook couplers come with each kit and can easily be switched-out with other couplers. All 4 stirrups broken. End without brake wheel has cracks in the plastic on both sides that need to be glued shut.
Although this item is marked as used in Okay / Fair condition, it is believed that this car has not yet been assembled at all. It is unknown WHY this car has the issues mentioned above, but they are present. I believe they are fixable and this car can still be a great addition to someone’s layout. I have set this item up for auction to the highest bidder.
Coupler Arrangement: 1HHC = 1 Hornhook Coupler
Wheel Type: pLFW = Plastic Low Flange Wheels
Item Package Type: ABB = Athearn Blue Box
