MARX 7" Boxcar ~ NEW YORK-NEW HAVEN HARTFORD ~ Type-B Wheelsets Rd# 3200

Description: We try to be Friendly to our international customers especially with our: UPS Standard to Canada.This pre-war 3/16" or 1:64 Scale is just in reference to the Type-B trucks and wheels which can seem confusing. These have the Marx Type-B trucks & smaller wheels than is found on all other Marx freight cars, to help understand this the second to last photo is Type-B and the last photo is of the more common Type-D trucks & Wheels. This Tin Litho 7" series was produced with box cars, cabooses, gondolas, refrigerator and stock cars as well as tank and flat cars as well as a "coffin" tender. The post-war production saw this same series of models but this time with the Type-D 1:48 Scale trucks and wheels and with plastic couplers. Marx had poor quality control in regard to paint color consistency and so the cars tended to have color hue variation, these were not different models and it's not the result of color-fade the paint batches were just inconsistent. These realistic 7" metal freight cars Marx produced from 1941&1942 and again Post-War in 1946 through 1953. The metal tilt-fork couplers were first introduced in 1936 and were used on this 1941-2 line of up-market models before switching to plastic couplers in 1953 production. They all came with 8-wheel trucks Type-B Pre-war and Type-D post-war and have wonderfully detailed lithography and similar in size to the 3-rail O gauge American Flyer in size and run on 3-rail 027 track. These have the Marx Type-B truck & with smaller wheels than is found on other Marx freight cars, second to last photo shows that the Type-B does couple with the Type-D trucks & Wheels. One thing to watch for if you are collecting these cars is that most were offered with not only the scale B-type truck, but also what is commonly known as 'high' or D-type trucks. they can and do couple, but the cars themselves mounted on the Type-D trucks appear noticeably about ¼" higher.See all of our eBay listings, visit: Ika's Trains and CollectablesThe Pullman Standard or PS-1 design was one of the most popular and was widely used by North American railroads. These boxcars were introduced in 1947 and share the same basic design, with certain elements such as door size, door style or roof type varying among the different railroads and production years. Pullman Standard built a total of 77,570 PS-1 railcars of varying designs. An interesting late 1950s and early 1960s PS-1 variant with the inclusion of a sliding door with plug door that allowed for easier loading of lumber products in the Pacific Northwest by providing a wider opening in the boxcar. 1928-30 Joy Line early thin lithoed tinplate loop 1930-34 Marx Joy Line loop type thicker raw metal 1935-36 Marx thick loop type Joy Line 6 inch silver litho over black base1934-35 Talgo pin coupler on 2 wheel M100001934-36 Talgo pin coupler on 4 wheel M100001936-50 Talgo pin coupler on M10005 passenger1938-48 Talgo pin on Mercury articulated passenger 1936 to end of 1948??1936 to end of 1974 Six inch 4 wheel Riveted Tab & Slot1936 Riveted Tab and slot 6 inch silver litho on black base1937 One way auto coupler for 8 wheel 6 inch cars with male post die cast and red base1937-38 Tab and slot 6 inch white lithography on red base electric1938-42 One way auto coupler for 8 wheel 6 inch cars with male post die cast - 1941 stamped steel post1938-42 Riveted tab and slot for six inch 8 wheel cars1938-48 Sliding twisted Tab & Slot for clockwork 6 inch1948-74 Sliding punched Tab & Slot for clockwork 6 inch1939-40 Sliding twisted Tab & Slot for clockwork silver zinc or tinplate 6 inch base1941-53 Twist type fork metal auto coupler for 3/16 scale cars - 1941 type-B trucks vertical slot on coupler1949-51 Short metal fork auto coupler cars with taller D trucks1948-49 Rectangular loop and hook on Canadian 198 powered 6 inch plastic passenger1950-57 Riveted tab and slot or knuckle, 7 inch cars1962-70 Riveted tab and slot or knuckle, 7 inch old time passenger cars1953-1974 Twist type fork Plastic auto couplers on tin 3/16 and plastic 027 with added slot that allowed Tab & Slot Couplers to mate1953 to 1974 Plastic Fixed Knuckle Coupler and continued by PlastiMarx - Thanks to - Dan Schievelbein Note #1: I will combine shipping for multiple items.
