HO PS-2 2600 Covered Hopper B&O #600401 (ATH63807)

HO PS-2 2600-Cubic-Foot Covered Hopper, Baltimore & Ohio #600401, is a detailed HO-scale model that faithfully reproduces the PS-2 class hopper used for cement and sand service from the 1960s into the 2000s. This authentic replica is designed to look right on HO layouts, adding a touch of mid-century freight realism to any yard or mainline scene.

Prototype-accurate features include a roof that can be flush or slightly overhanging, highly detailed end cages and etched end platforms, and a fully injection-molded body. The car rolls on machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers for dependable operation on most track brands. It is weighted for stable handling, finished with accurate paint and printing, and ships fully assembled and ready to run with a minimum 18-inch radius requirement. The PS-2 2600 cu ft hopper entered service in the 1960s and was widely used for cement and sand shipments, occasionally serving as a buffer car when bulk loads weren't protected.
