N TankTrain Intermediate GATX Quaker State Model (ATH-1792)

An N TankTrain Intermediate GATX Quaker State Tank Car, a ready-to-run model designed for N-scale layouts. Representing two GATX classes—the 282-series and the 486-series—this car offers authentic, era-appropriate detail for both modern and period-correct displays.

Designed for realism and smooth operation, it features finely detailed walkways, full underbody plumbing and rigging, and 100-ton roller-bearing trucks with rotating bearing caps. Separate wireform grab irons and etched metal coupler platforms, plus correct walkways, manways, and load/unload plaques per series, add to its prototypical appeal. Transfer plumbing is replicated with soft vinyl hoses that bend through curves, and the injection-molded body includes full underframe detail such as air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinders. Body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers pair with 36-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for reliable performance on common track, compatible with a minimum radius of 9 3/4 inches (11 inches recommended). The 282-series era spans 1977 to present, while the 486-series runs from 1982 to present.
