HO 13K Gallon Acid Tank Car FXE #418099/418109/418119 (ATHG-1433)

HO Scale 13,000-Gallon Acid Tank Car FXE is a highly detailed model designed for realistic chemical service on HO layouts. Featuring FXE markings and multiple road numbers (418099, 418109, 418119), it provides authentic roster options for period-accurate operation and display.

Designed to reflect both early and late body configurations, the car features two body phases and prototype-appropriate top platforms, plus separate wire grabs and handrails for added realism. The model rides on trucks with animated rotating bearing caps and uses body-mounted scale double-shelf knuckle couplers for smooth, reliable coupling. Underframe detail is exhaustive, including air brake reservoir, control valve, and brake cylinders with plumbing, while etched metal walkways, varied brake systems, end sills, coupler lift bars, trainline hoses, and brake hoses add depth. Many parts are separately applied for a highly lifelike appearance. Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours ensure smooth operation on most tracks, and the car is ready to negotiate a minimum radius of 18 inches, making it suitable for compact layouts. Road numbers vary between singles and three-packs to create a realistic roster.
