Around The Layout Podcast has partnered with Prairie Shadows Model Railway Co to create a limited edition car to celebrate the success of the Interchange Tour and the upcoming fifth anniversary of the podcast in 2027. And, of course, it had to be a 50’ high cube!
Trinity 50’ High Cube Boxcar - Version: V02A, 6235 cu ft, 10' Plug Door / Era: 2001+
Optimized for paper service or similar commodities, these iconic cars can be seen all over North America. Trinity started production of these 50' 6" cars in 1997 in Greenville, PA. Production later expanded into Mexico in the early 2000s and multiple variations of the car were produced over the last 20 years. If you are modeling the mid 90s or later, these cars are a must for any railroad with paper service.
