{"product_id":"ath-1401","title":"HO ATH Berwick Bathtub Gondola with Load Primed For Grime (ATH-1401)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HO-scale Berwick Bathtub Gondola with Load, Primed for Grime, recreates the classic bathtub-style gondola used to haul bulk cargo. With a loaded interior and a weather-ready finish, it provides a realistic anchor for yard scenes or longer freight consists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures include separately applied grab irons, end ladders, and a brake wheel, along with body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers and machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for smooth operation on most HO tracks. The car is weighted for steady handling and is designed for a minimum 18-inch radius, with 22 inches recommended for best performance. The Primed for Grime finish reproduces the look of in-service equipment, with faded base colors that serve as an ideal starting point for adding grime and rust. Historically, bathtub gondolas were built to maximize bulk capacity by eliminating unloading gates; though many were later replaced by lighter aluminum cars, they remained in service for maintenance or bulk-service roles and were sometimes extended or reinforced to handle heavier loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47557144870964,"sku":"ATH-1401","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH-1401.jpg?v=1772828904","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath-1401","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
