N PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper CB&Q #85012 (ATH28350)

This N-scale model reproduces a Pullman-Standard PS-2 3-bay covered hopper in CB&Q livery, designed to haul bulk commodities such as grain, cement, and plastic pellets on a model railroad. These cars roamed North American rails for decades, a testament to their practical, rugged service.

Detailed features include separately applied round roof hatches, brake wheel, and walkway, plus separately applied outlets and braces for added realism. The model uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for smooth operation on most track. With an 11-inch minimum radius, it’s well-suited for standard-layout curves and the broader roster of N-scale layouts.
