A composite box structure having a core encapsulated in multiple layers of fiber reinforced plastic is provided. The core may be formed from various materials which provide improved resistance to heat transfer between the interior and the exterior of the composite box structure. The composite box structure includes a pair of end walls, a pair of side walls, a floor and a roof with fiber reinforced plastic interior and exterior surfaces. An opening is formed in each side wall to allow access to the interior of the composite box structure. An opening may also be formed in one end of the composite box structure to allow installing a temperature control system therein. An airflow management system may be incorporated into selected interior portions of the roof, side walls, end walls and floor. The composite box structure may be mounted on a railway car underframe to provide a temperature controlled composite boxcar.
