HO PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper CB&Q #85025 Plastic Model (ATHG73617)

HO-scale PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper CB&Q #85025 is a detailed plastic model that reproduces Pullman-Standard’s PS-2 design for hauling bulk commodities on mid-century North American rails.

Designed for authentic operation, it features separately applied round roof hatches, a photo-etched metal roof walk, and factory-applied wire grab irons, along with full underframe detail including air brake components and plumbing. It rides on weighted, machined nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contours and 33-inch diameter, compatible with most HO track brands, and uses body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers with lift bars, trainline hoses, and brake hoses for prototypical coupling. A minimum curve radius of 18 inches keeps it friendly for standard HO layouts, while accurate painting and printing add to the model’s realism.
