HO ATH PS 4740 Covered Hopper CRLE #521027 (ATH-2375)

HO-scale Athearn PS 4740 Covered Hopper in CRLE livery is a fully assembled, ready-to-run model designed for realistic operation on HO layouts. It features body-mounted McHenry scale-knuckle couplers for dependable linking and 36-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours that roll smoothly on most HO tracks. Roller-bearing trucks and a weighted chassis provide steady performance, while razor-sharp painting and printing deliver crisp lettering and accurate color. With a minimum radius of 18 inches, it handles standard HO curves with ease.

Primed for grime models, the finish reproduces the look of in-service equipment, with faded base colors matched to the prototype and ready-made for weathering. It offers a natural starting point for adding grime and rust, letting hobbyists tailor the appearance while retaining a sharp, authentic look. This combination of ready-to-run convenience and weathering-friendly detail makes it a credible, eye-catching addition to any HO freight roster.
