N Scale
In the 1970's, a surge of colorful boxcars could be seen all across the country as larger railroads leased more and more boxcars from
shortline railroads. To encourage the return of the boxcars, shortline railroads could charge a per diem, or daily fee, until the cars were
returned. Incentive Per Diem (IPD) boxcars were primarily 50' rib side boxcars with 10' sliding or plug doors or double sliding doors. Some
of these cars can still be seen rolling the rails, under the ownership of new roads, and often heavily weathered and graffitied.
