HO 33,900-Gallon LPG Tank SIRX #2 Model (ATHG25599)

HO Scale 33,900-Gallon LPG Tank Car, SIRX 2, is a highly detailed HO model of a liquefied petroleum gas tanker designed to add authentic LPG service to HO layouts. It captures the car’s 33,900-gallon capacity and offers multiple road numbers for fleet variety, plus three body phases—early, flat panel, and late—to reflect different production eras. The model includes separately applied walkways, manways, outlets, ladders, brake rigging, safety rail supports, and tank saddles, along with photo-etched walkways and end platforms, wire safety rails, and end handrails for added realism. Underframe detail is comprehensive, with either body-mounted brakes or truck-mounted brakes to match prototype configurations, and printed placards provide authentic markings.

On the rails, it delivers authentic operation with a full set of period-appropriate details: body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers, 100-ton trucks with animated rotating bearing caps, machined metal wheels in RP25 contours, and a carefully weighted body for stable performance. The injection-molded body is richly detailed and painted for prototypical realism, and it includes coupler lift bars, trainline hoses, brake hoses, and other hardware to complete the look. Minimum curve radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for smooth running on typical HO layouts.
