{"product_id":"athg-1127","title":"HO GEN 57' FGE Mechanical Reefer with Sound (ATHG-1127)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eHO-scale 57-foot Fruit Growers Express mechanical reefer with SoundTraxx provides a highly detailed, ready-to-run model of a postwar mechanical refrigerator car. Based on prototype drawings and field measurements, it reproduces the smooth-side body, see-through end screens and inner bulkhead, plus full underframe detail such as brake gear, reservoirs and a fuel tank. Factory features include end ladders, door closure rods, see-through end platforms, and two exhaust-stack styles (straight pipe with flapper or T-shaped smokejack) to match era variations. It rides on 100-ton roller-bearing trucks with RP25 wheels and uses McHenry knuckle couplers; it’s weighted for reliable operation and fits HO layouts with a minimum 18-inch radius (22 inches recommended).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eSound-equipped versions deliver authentic audio recorded from a real reefer unit, with sound cycling on and off and volume adjustable for layout power. A Primed for grime option recreates the ‘In Service’ look with faded base colors, offering a perfect starting point for adding rust and weathering. This 57-foot reefer is part of Fruit Growers Express’s mid-century fleet, cars often built at Jacksonville Shops and seen across carriers like Atlantic Coast Line and Southern, making it a convincing centerpiece for realistic yard and mainline scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn Genesis (ATHG)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47571092308020,"sku":"ATHG-1127","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATHG-1127.jpg?v=1773199766","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/athg-1127","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
