Athearn product #5463, a 57' Reefer Boxcar in HO (1:87) scale. Bangor & Aroostook [BAR #11128] is heritage hard-to-find rolling stock for layouts featuring the 1950s through early 2000's era. This car has knuckle couplers, high quality trucks, and is ready to run. The Bangor and Aroostook Railroad brought rail service to Aroostook County in northern Maine. Brightly-painted BAR boxcars attracted national attention in the 1950s. First-generation diesel locomotives operated on BAR until they were museum pieces. The economic downturn of the 1980s, coupled with the departure of heavy industry from northern Maine, forced the railroad to seek a buyer and end operations in 2003. It was succeeded by the Montreal, Maine, and Atlantic Railway. NOTE: Track, scenery, structures or other items shown in display images are not included with this boxcar.
