HO PS-2 2600 Covered Hopper BN #430222 (ATH63806)

HO Scale PS-2 2600-Cubic-Foot Covered Hopper from Burlington Northern is a ready-to-run model that recreates a classic 1960s freight car used for cement and sand service on HO layouts. This faithful replica reflects the prototype with options for flush or overhanging roofs and includes detailed end cages and etched end platforms for an authentic silhouette.

It rolls on machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and uses body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers for a prototypical appearance between cars. The model is weighted for stable operation, fully painted and printed for realistic branding, and arrives fully assembled and ready to run. Suitable for 18-inch minimum radius curves, this PS-2 2600-cubic-foot hopper was a common sight from the 1960s into the 2000s, primarily handling cement and sand and occasionally serving as a buffer car when bulkloads needed extra protection.
