Review: Menards REA Boxcar and US Air Force Missile Car

We take a thorough look at two Menards freight cars, their heritage, and compare them to Lionel products.

First is the Menards Railway Express Agency boxcar, based on molds originally developed by American Models/ Auburn Model Trains.

Next is the US Air Force Missile Car.

How do these cars compare in size and operation to Lionel cars?
