{"product_id":"ath96246","title":"HO Auto-Max Carrier (ATH96246)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eThe HO Auto-Max Carrier is an HO-scale model of Gunderson's Auto-Max articulated auto rack, designed to bring authentic intermodal operation to HO layouts. This precision replica captures the car's triple-ramp design and its ability to carry SUVs, offering a striking focal point for modern freight scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eDetailing is meticulous, with separately applied ladders, brake rigging, stirrups, and handbrake details on a realistically corrugated roof. The model features full articulation with a flexible diaphragm, safety striping, and 70-ton roller-bearing trucks with 33-inch machined metal wheels in RP25 contours. A weighted chassis and body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers ensure smooth tracking and reliable operation, while the injection-molded body is painted and printed for lifelike decoration. The minimum curve radius is 22 inches, making it compatible with a wide range of HO layouts. Prototype background notes indicate Gunderson introduced the Auto-Max in 1999 as a heavy-duty auto rack capable of carrying 22 SUVs on three internal ramps, measuring roughly 140 feet long and 20 feet tall from the railhead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47606392586292,"sku":"ATH96246","price":74.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH96246.jpg?v=1774276291","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath96246","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
