HO PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper Model (ATHG-1278)

HO-scale 3-Bay Covered Hopper in Southern Railway livery (SOU 93300) is a detailed model designed to add realism to HO freight trains and dioramas. This 3-bay hopper replicates a bulk-carrier used for dry goods, with accurate proportions, lifelike paint, and prototypical lettering that helps it blend into a convincing freight lineup.

Inside, the model features separately applied round roof hatches, factory-applied wire grab irons, and a full underframe with air brake reservoir, valve, and brake cylinder plumbing. It rides on machined nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contours for smooth operation on popular HO track and uses body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers to keep long trains connected. The car is weighted for steady, reliable running and includes a photo-etched roof walk and detailed outlets for extra realism, with a minimum curve radius of 18 inches. It is primed for grime, offering the perfect starting point for weathering to achieve an in-service look.
