HO PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper NSRX #302 Plastic Model (ATHG-1263)

HO Scale 3-Bay Covered Hopper NSRX No. 302 is a meticulously detailed freight car model designed for realistic operation on HO scale layouts. Reproducing a three-bay covered hopper in NSRX livery, this model captures the look of a car that would be in active service on the rails.

Inside, it features separately applied round roof hatches, factory-applied wire grab irons, and a full underframe with an air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinder with plumbing. The model rides on machined nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contours for reliable performance on most HO track and uses body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers for smooth operation. It also includes a photo-etched roof walk, detailed outlets, and is weighted to ensure steady tracking on layouts with a minimum 18-inch radius. The finish is designed to resemble an in-service car, with faded base colors matched to the prototype, providing a ready starting point for adding grime and rust.
