- Rivarossi, Italian manufacturer and now part of the Hornby Hobbies family of brands, has produced some of the most iconic locomotives in steam, diesel and electric over the last 50 years.
- Boxcars carry a wide range of crated or palletized freight all around the country, protected from the elements for all types of products and goods as they make the long haul to their destination. Switching from the originally short-lived boxcars made of wood, which degraded and became a fire hazard over time, these 50 foot boxcars are fashioned after the second/third generation of boxcars made from steel frames modeled after those produced by ACF, American Car and Foundry Company.
- These boxcars ran regularly from 1955-1975 and could be seen being pulled by 1st and 2nd generation diesel locomotives or late steam. These highly detailed and authentically liveried box cars are made using high quality construction materials and come equipped with knuckle couplers and metal road wheels, featuring sliding doors.

Pennsylvania Railroad, or Pennsy, born out of state of Pennsylvania wanting to jump on the band wagon to streamline freight through the state, started their first route from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh in 1846. By 1882, Pennsy became the largest corporation in the world as it was also producing the most revenue and traffic along its tracks. Through major acquisitions across the North East and West to Illinois, PRR continued its success eventually owned just short of 283,000 freight cars in 1919 and around the time they started the major switch to electric. During World War II, Pennsy's freight traffic increased, along with its passengers, making the slow switch to diesel, before its merger with New York Central in 1968 that would become Penn Central Transportation Company, or Penn Central for short. These boxcars ran regularly from 1955-1975 and could be seen being pulled by 1st and 2nd generation diesel locomotives or late steam. These highly detailed and authentically liveried box cars are made using high quality construction materials and come equipped with knuckle couplers and metal road wheels, featuring sliding doors.
