HO 30,000-Gallon Ethanol Tank Model (ATH29924)

HO Scale 30,000-Gallon Ethanol Tank Car is a meticulously detailed model that recreates a modern ethanol transport car. With a capacity of 30,000 gallons, it mirrors the cars owned by railcar leasing companies and leased to ethanol producers, making it a believable addition to freight trains and yard scenes on HO-scale layouts.

The model captures authentic detail: separately applied walkway platforms, manways, outlets, ladders, brake rigging, safety rail supports, tank saddles, and printed placards, plus photo-etched walkways and end platforms. It rides on 100-ton roller bearing trucks, 36-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, and is weighted for steady performance. Body-mounted McHenry operating scale couplers ensure reliable handling, while an injection-molded body is painted and printed for realistic decoration. Designed for HO-scale layouts, it requires a minimum 18-inch radius curves to operate smoothly.
