N 52' Mill Gondola NdeM #86763 (ATH-2026)

Representing the Mexican National Railways (NdeM) 52-foot mill gondola, this detailed model recreates the open-top freight car used to haul bulky loads such as coil steel or scrap metal on a model railroad layout.

New features include improved molded-on detail fidelity, fine-scale stirrups, and added nut-and-bolt details for a more authentic look. The model comes with body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers, metal wheelsets, and screw-mounted trucks for smooth tracking. Fully assembled and ready to run, it negotiates a minimum radius of 9 3/4 inches. Open-top gondolas like this have long been a mainstay of railroading, ideal for carrying large, bulky loads loaded by crane.
