HO UTC 33K LPG Tank Car Early MBLX #34391 (ATHG-1507)

This HO-scale LPG Tank Car is a meticulously detailed model designed for HO-scale rail layouts. It reproduces early- to late-production characteristics with three body phases—early, flat-panel, and late—and offers multiple road numbers to match prototype fleets. Rich, separately applied details such as walkway platforms, manways, outlets, ladders, brake rigging, safety rail supports, and tank saddles contribute to a convincing in-service appearance, while photo-etched walkways, end platforms, wire safety rails, and printed placards deepen the realism.

Underframe and running gear are faithfully modeled, with prototype-accurate options for body-mounted or truck-mounted brakes. The car rides on 100-ton trucks with animated bearing caps, features machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, and has a weighted chassis for smooth operation. Body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers, along with train line hoses and brake hoses, add authentic detail. Designed for HO layouts with a minimum 18-inch radius and finished in a faded, prototype-matched base color, it’s primed for grime and weathering to recreate a true “in-service” look for your era.
