Kadee Micro-Trains 42030 Ball Glass Jars Boxcar

I grew up in Muncie, IN where Ball Glass was founded. When I saw this car I added it to my collection, but I never ran it.

According to the box the model is a 40' single door double-sheathed wooden boxcar. The doors are open and close.

The car is still in its original box and of course has Magne-Matic® couplers mounted.
