{"product_id":"ath-2586","title":"HO 60' Pullman Common Standard Postal Car Green Unlettered (ATH-2586)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eHO-scale 60-foot Pullman Common Standard Postal Car, green and unlettered, is a faithful reproduction of the early 20thÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Ëœcentury mail car used to speed postal handling on American railroads. Rooted in the Harriman-era Common Standard design, these cars moved from wood to steel construction for safety and strength, and the model reflects that history with arched roof panels, rivet detailing, and period features such as mail slots on each side and interior mailÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Ëœhandling components like letter cases, pouch racks, bins, and sorting tables. A magnetically attached roof provides easy access for maintenance while preserving a clean silhouette on the layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eDesigned for HO layouts, the car rides on sixÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Ëœwheel trucks with scale knuckleÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Ëœspring couplers and is weighted for smooth operation on typical HO-radius curves (minimum 18 inches). End diaphragms and period detailingÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Âsuch as underbody gas tanks and options for pressed steel or wooden side doorsÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Âheighten realism while the unlettered finish keeps the car versatile for mixed mail and passenger trains. The model represents two underframe variants (as-built with gas tanks and modernized with a battery box), offering authentic flexibility for recreating classic mail service on a hobbyistÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47906399223860,"sku":"ATH-2586","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH-2586.jpg?v=1781650849","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath-2586","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
