{"product_id":"ath-1726","title":"N PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper NYC #883059 (ATH-1726)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eAn N-scale model of a Pullman-Standard PS-2 3-bay covered hopper, finished in New York Central livery as NYC car 883059. This detailed freight car is designed for realistic operation on model railroads, capturing the role of mid-century bulk-hauling service used to move commodities like grain, cement, and plastic pellets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eFinely rendered detailing includes separately applied roof hatches, a brake wheel, and walkway, plus separately added outlets and braces. It uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for smooth performance on common tracks, with a minimum radius of 11 inches. The model is primed for grime, offering an authentic in-service look with base colors faded to match the prototype and a ready starting point for adding weathering such as grime and rust. Historically, the PS-2 family dominated the covered hopper market from the 1950s onward, reflecting its utilitarian role in North American railroading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47900007530548,"sku":"ATH-1726","price":43.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH-1726.jpg?v=1781304645","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath-1726","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
