A little touch of history:
The boxcar is a type of railway machine with the purpose of transporting water-fearing goods or fragile cargo. These wagons consist of a body generally made of wood, covered by waterproof materials to ensure the protection of the goods.
For loading and unloading, these models are equipped with two wide side doors. We call this type of wagon a "BoxCar" in North America.
