HO ATH 40' Pickle Car JBCX 1977 (ATH-2199)

HO Scale 40-Foot Pickle Car, JBCX 1977 is a detailed HO model that recreates a vintage pickle car used to transport brined pickles on mid-20th-century railroads. The prototype’s design typically included several vats under a roof, with pickles loaded through roof hatches. This replica brings period-accurate detail to layouts, making it a realistic addition to yards, industrial sidings, or mainline scenes.

Fully assembled and ready to run, the car features a highly detailed injection-molded body, precise turnbuckles, and body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers for reliable prototypical coupling. Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours provide smooth operation on most HO track brands, and it is weighted for stable, dependable performance. With a minimum curve radius of 15 inches, the model fits standard HO layouts and offers a versatile option for capturing historical freight scenes.
