N&W box car

[NW Modeling List]

At one time Walthers offered an HO model of this car. It’s discontinued and out of stock, but I suspect they occasionally show up on ebay and swap meets.

The decals you need are Microscale 60-238 (N scale or 87-238 (HO).  There is a picture of these cars on page 44 of Jim Nichols N&W Color Guide.

These were actual cars, I remember seeing them. I cannot answer about decals however.
