HO PS-2 2003 2-Bay Hopper Burlington Northern Model (ATH15417)

This HO-scale Burlington Northern two-bay PS-2 covered hopper reproduces a classic 1950s Pullman-Standard design, built to carry dry bulk loads with a 2003 cubic-foot capacity. The fixed, weatherproof body and prototypical BN livery make it an authentic addition to an HO freight roster, ideal for depicting grain, sand, or clay traffic on a layout.

Detailed features include photo-etched roof walks, machined RP25 wheels, and a weight-balanced underframe for steady tracking. Body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers provide reliable, prototypical coupling, while the injection-molded shell is painted and printed for realistic decoration. With a minimum 18-inch radius, this model fits most standard HO layouts, and the PS-2 design was historically chosen for quick roof-loading and bottom unloading of dry bulk loads.
