Savannah & Atlanta O Gauge RailKing 40' High Cube Box Car

To celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2012, the Norfolk Southern Railway painted 20 freight diesels in paint schemes honoring its predecessor railroads. Eleven of the prototype schemes were applied to EMD SD70ACe locomotives at Progress Rail Services' shops in Muncie, IN. Norfolk Southern employees at its Chattanooga, TN and Altoona, PA shops applied the remaining nine heritage schemes to General Electric ES44AC diesels.

While companion box cars were not created by the Norfolk Southern, these cars depict what might have been. They can serve as a fitting complement to our RailKing models of the 20 Heritage diesels, or simply a depiction of how your favorite "Fallen Flag" railroad might have painted a modern box car.

High quality, traditionally sized RailKing Freight Cars provide detailed bodies and colorful paint schemes for the O Gauge railroader. MTH makes an enormous variety of RailKing Freight Cars, including many different car types and roadnames. No matter what era or part of the country you are modeling, RailKing is sure to have something for you.
