N PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper C&O #2063 (ATH28347)

An N-scale PS-2 3-Bay Covered Hopper in Chesapeake & Ohio livery (C&O #2063) is a detailed model designed to represent mid-century bulk-car service on an N-scale layout. Built to haul commodities such as grain, cement, and plastic pellets, this car adds authentic freight activity to the track.

Key details include separately applied round roof hatches, a brake wheel, and a walkway, plus externally added outlets and detailed braces that enhance the car’s prototype look. Body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers provide reliable, prototypical coupling with other rolling stock, while machined metal wheels with RP25 contours deliver smooth operation on common track. With an 11" minimum radius, it’s a good fit for compact layouts. The PS-2 design, introduced by Pullman-Standard in the 1950s and widely used to move bulk commodities, is faithfully captured in this model, offering a believable glimpse into mid-century railroading.
