HO 52' Mill Gondola CRLE #3556/3607/3692 (ATH-1873)

HO Scale 52-foot Mill Gondola in CRLE livery is a ready-to-run freight car designed to haul bulky loads on HO-scale layouts. This detailed model ships fully assembled and ready to roll, featuring body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers, separately applied wire grab irons, and 33-inch solid nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contours for smooth operation on most popular track brands. It also includes refined end-sheet molded-on details, rivet and bolt detailing, corrected wire grab-iron placements, plus new top-chord and jack reinforcement pad details and coupler cut lever mounting. Weighing for optimum performance and with a minimum radius of 18 inches, it’s available in multi-packs that include three cars with unique road numbers.

Open-top gondolas like this are ideal for bulky loads such as coil steel or scrap metal moved by cranes. The 52-foot length, realistic paint, and weighted chassis help deliver dependable operation and a convincing presence on yards and industrial scenes, while the detailed finish ensures a believable, era-appropriate look on any HO layout.
