HO 40' Pfaudler Milk Car Plastic Model (ATH84721)

This HO-scale 40-foot Pfaudler Milk Car is a detailed plastic model designed for era-accurate HO-scale railroad layouts, recreating a classic bulk-milk carrier from the early to mid-20th century. The prototype carried two 6,000-gallon glass-lined tanks with a brine cooling system to keep milk at 38°F and rode on passenger-car trucks, often seen in period Pullman-green livery.

The model features screw-mounted trucks, machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, and a weighted chassis for smooth operation. It uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and a highly detailed injection-molded body painted and printed for realistic decoration. Designed to handle HO-layout curves as tight as 11 inches in radius, it makes a convincing addition to eras-focused dairy or freight scenes.
