HO UTC 33K LPG Tank Car Late PLMX Primed For Grime #137430 (ATHG-1512)

An HO-scale UTC 33K LPG Tank Car, late era and primed for grime, designed to represent a 33,000-gallon liquefied petroleum gas tanker in in-service freight use on HO layouts. The primed-for-grime finish provides a realistic starting point for weathering, with faded base colors matched to prototype appearances to help achieve authentic, time-appropriate character on a model railroad.

Details include multiple road numbers across singles and 3-packs, a separately applied walkway platform, manway, outlets, ladders, brake rigging detail, safety rail supports and tank saddles, plus full underframe detail with body- or truck-mounted brakes as per prototype. It rides on 100-ton trucks with animated rotating bearing caps and features accurately painted and printed elements, coupler lift bars, trainline hoses, brake hoses, and hardware. Three body phases—early, flat panel, and late—are represented, along with photo-etched walkways and end platforms, wire safety rails and end handrails, printed placards, and body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers. Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours sit on a highly detailed injection-molded body weighted for steady operation with a minimum 18-inch radius. The primed-for-grime finish mirrors the look of in-service equipment, making it an ideal base for adding grime and rust to suit a layout’s roster.
