Prototype History: 
The P-S 5344 Boxcar is last of the successful boxcar projects of the Pullman-Standard company. With production beginning in 1977, Pullman-Standard produced nearly 7,000 P-S 5344 Boxcars. In 1981, Pullman moved to sell all railroad assets in an economy of declining freight car sales. However, these cars ply the rails in legacy of America's great car builder. The last of a breed.
Road Name History: 
The CCR began construction in 1958 and opened in 1959 a line between Corinth, Mississippi and Counce, Tennessee, a distance of 16 miles. In 1974, they added a 10 mile branch between Sharp and Yellow Creek, Mississippi. Packaging Corporation of America was the largest customer and they bought the railroad in 1970. In addition to traffic to and from the PCofA plant, CCR also moved plastics, steel, and grain. You may be familiar with this line due to their large fleet of light blue boxcars acquired during the per diem boxcar boom. At the end of 1991, PCofA sold the railroad to MidSouth who changed the name from Corinth & Counce to Tennrail. Today, the line is part of Kansas City Southern.
Brand/Importer Information: 
Fox Valley Models is a small supplier of
model railroad and related products. FVM
started by finding solutions to different
challenges that model railroaders were
faced with. Our first products resulted
from a need to equip custom built
passenger cars with tinted windows made
of an ideal material; thin, flexible, easy to
cut, simple to install, available in multiple
colors and be affordable. We met those
needs and even included a frosted
version for the car's lavatory windows.
Other challenges inspired additional products including wooden grade crossings, trestles and different lineside structures. As our product line expands, input and requests from friends and customers help shape the product selection further.
Future products, under development, include more parts, structures, details and rolling stock. We strive to offer a good quality product at an affordable price.
