N 40' Offset Coal Hopper with Load, CN #2 (4) (ATH28572)

This N-scale 40-foot offset coal hopper with a removable coal load is designed to faithfully reproduce a bulk coal car for model railroads, in CN #2 livery. It reflects how coal is moved on rail networks with automated loading and unloading facilities, making it a natural fit for layouts that depict CN-era operations and modern coal service in N scale.

Key details include a highly detailed injection-molded body, a weighted and painted die-cast underframe for stability, and machined metal wheels for smooth running. It uses body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers for secure connections, and offers the option of roller-bearing or Bettendorf trucks. The car also features a scale-profile brake wheel and accurate painting and printing, with compatibility for Code 55 and 80 rails and a minimum radius of 9 3/4 inches on most layouts. The removable coal load adds display flexibility and lets you recreate loading or unloading scenarios.
