Micro Trains 02500356 chessie/b&o 50' boxcar, N

Built in 1978, this 50’ boxcar was leased from Helm Leasing to Chessie System in 1985, and featured Damage Free Loaders and Hennessey Door Openers. Chessie System was formed through the 1972 mergers of Chesapeake & Ohio, Baltimore & Ohio, and Western Maryland. It remained one of the largest East coast railroads until 1986 when Seaboard System merged with Chessie to form today’s rail giant, CSX Transportation.
