HO GATC 2600 Airslide Hopper D&H #12930 (ATHG87495)

HO Scale GATC 2600 Airslide Hopper in D&H livery is a detailed HO-model replica of the classic bulk-carrier used to haul materials like flour, sugar, and plastics. Based on the 2,600-cubic-foot Airslide design, it reproduces the two narrow, steep-sided bays and the air-permeable bottom that fluidizes the load for easier discharge, delivering an authentic look and operation on HO layouts.

Prototypically accurate and feature-rich, the model offers three body-style variations with a highly detailed underbody including outlet piping. It can depict gravity or gravity-pneumatic outlets, and includes rectangular or oval shaker brackets, a see-through metal roof walk, and separately applied round roof hatches and brake wheel. The car rides on either roller bearing or Bettendorf trucks with machined metal RP25 wheels, and is weighted for steady running. Body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers ensure reliable coupling, while the injection-molded body is crisply painted and printed, designed to fit HO layouts with a minimum 18-inch radius.
