{"product_id":"athg-1141","title":"HO GEN 57' FGE Mechanical Reefer with Sound (ATHG-1141)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eHO scale 57-foot FGE Mechanical Reefer with Sound is a ready-to-run model that faithfully reproduces a classic mechanical refrigeration car used to haul perishables across the country. Available in a sound-equipped version with onboard SoundTraxx sound or as a green data-only release, the car is scaled from prototype drawings and field measurements, capturing variation in reporting marks, car numbers, and patch shapes that mirror real fleets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eFrom see-through protective screens on the ends to the inner refrigerator bulkhead and end-platform detail, this model features full underframe detail including Keystone cushioning, brake components, and fuel tanks. It rides on 100-ton roller bearing trucks with rotating caps and machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, and uses McHenry scale knuckle couplers with trainline hoses, end ladders, and door closure rods where prototype dictates. Options include two exhaust stack styles—straight pipe with a flapper and a T-shaped “smokejack”—and a choice of body-mounted or truck-mounted brakes, with the model weighted for smooth operation on layout curves (minimum 18 inches; 22 inches recommended). For weathering enthusiasts, a grime-ready base provides an authentic starting point for adding rust and wear. The historical context highlights reefers like this as pivotal to moving perishables nationwide, with many built at Jacksonville Shops for the Fruit Growers Express fleet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn Genesis (ATHG)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47608084201524,"sku":"ATHG-1141","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATHG-1141.jpg?v=1774288870","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/athg-1141","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
