HO 16,000 Gallon Clay Tank Model (ATH16400)

HO Scale 16,000-Gallon Clay Tank Car in UTLX livery is a modern, prototypical model designed for HO-scale railroad layouts. This 16,000-gallon tank car reflects a 286K design with a 111-inch tank diameter and about 44 feet in length, ideal for representing clay service on your layout. A funnel-flow bottom unloading design and lining to prevent cross-contamination add authenticity to the model.

Every detail emphasizes realism: full brake plumbing and rigging, see-through etched walkways, separately applied fittings such as nozzle and manway with platforms, wire platform railings, ladders, placard holders, and printed markings. The model rides on 36-inch nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contour and uses McHenry AAR upper/lower shelf couplers. It’s designed to run on HO track with a minimum 18-inch radius, delivering a highly detailed, dependable addition to operating sessions or displays.
