HO 13K Gallon Acid Tank Car UTLX #125029/125030/125043 (ATHG-1425)

HO Scale 13K-Gallon Acid Tank Car in UTLX markings, designed to reproduce the 13K class used for chemical service. The model covers two body phases—early and late—for prototype accuracy, with top platforms that vary by era and multiple road numbers, including singles and three-packs to create realistic rosters. It also features separate wire grabs and handrails, along with trucks that have animated rotating bearing caps for added realism.

Inside, the car includes full underframe detail such as an air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinder with plumbing and brake rod details. Etched metal walkways and many separately applied details heighten realism, while body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers ensure prototypical operation. Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours provide smooth performance on common HO track. Additional prototype touches include different brake systems and end sills, plus coupler lift bars, trainline hoses, brake hoses, and hardware, with a minimum radius of 18 inches to fit a wide range of layouts.
