N 52' Mill Gondola DRGW #56377 (ATH-2018)

This N-scale 52-foot Mill Gondola in DRGW livery (56377) is a detailed, ready-to-run model that recreates a classic open-top freight car. It's designed to haul bulky loads—such as coil steel or scrap metal—on your layout, delivering convincing freight operations to industrial scenes.

On the track, the car features body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers, metal wheel sets, and screw-mounted trucks for smooth, accurate tracking. It arrives fully assembled and ready to run, with a minimum radius of 9¾ inches to fit tighter layouts. Enhancements include improved molded-on detail fidelity, fine-scale stirrups, and added nut-and-bolt detailing for a realistic look. Open-top gondolas have long been a mainstay on railroads for decades, ideal for bulky loads loaded by crane, making this model a versatile addition to both industrial-era and modern freight scenes.
