{"product_id":"ath-1404","title":"N ATH Berwick Bathtub Extended Side Gondola CTWX #2104 (ATH-1404)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Berwick Bathtub Extended Side Gondola is a detailed model railroad car that reproduces the classic bathtub gondola used for bulk cargo on freight layouts. It’s weighted for smooth, trouble‑free operation and features body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers and machined metal wheels with RP25 contours to work with a wide range of track brands. For layout planning, it’s designed to run reliably on curves, with a minimum radius of 9 3\/4 inches and a recommended radius of 11 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePrimed for grime weathering, the model offers a realistic “In Service” look with base colors faded to match the prototype and an ideal starting point for adding grime and rust. Historically, bathtub gondolas were built to maximize cargo capacity by omitting unloading gates; as steel cars gave way to aluminum, many found second lives carrying bulk loads, with extensions adding about 50% more volume and reinforcing the car for tougher service. This blend of authentic heritage and practical running quality makes it a convincing addition to any layout seeking a credible bulk-car era look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47570205802548,"sku":"ATH-1404","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH-1404.jpg?v=1773175726","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath-1404","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
