N ATH PS 4427 Covered Hopper UP #81382 (ATH-2381)

Athearn PS-4427 Covered Hopper, Union Pacific No. 81382, is a ready-to-run HO-scale model that faithfully recreates a classic mid-century freight car for display and layout operation.

Designed for dependable, prototypical performance, it features body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers, screw-mounted and roller-bearing trucks for smooth tracking, and 36-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours. It operates on Code 55 and Code 80 rails, is weighted for optimum performance, and arrives fully assembled and ready to run. The razor-sharp painting and printing deliver a crisp, authentic appearance, and the car comes packaged in a jewel box for display or storage. A minimum radius of 9 3/4 inches ensures smooth operation on most standard layouts.
