{"product_id":"athg87497","title":"HO GATC 2600 Airslide Hopper PRR \/ GACX #44132 (ATHG87497)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eHO-scale Airslide Hopper model reproduces the General American Transportation Company's 2,600-cubic-foot airslide covered hopper, a bulk-car designed for flour, sugar, plastics and other free-flowing loads. The prototype’s Airslide arrangement uses air flow through a bottom layer to fluidize the payload for easy discharge through the outlets, and some cars were even paired into longer two-unit sets for greater capacity. This PRR\/GACX-painted version adds period-specific character to HO freight rosters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eHighlights include three body styles, rectangular or oval shaker brackets, gravity or gravity-pneumatic outlets, a see-through metal roof walk, and separately applied round roof hatches and brake wheel. The model features detailed underbody piping, factory-installed wire grab irons and brake piping, and the choice of roller bearing or Bettendorf trucks on machined RP25 wheels. Weighted for steady operation and equipped with body-mounted McHenry scale-knuckle couplers, it arrives with accurately painted and printed detailing on a highly detailed injection-molded body, and is designed to run smoothly on HO layouts with an 18-inch minimum radius.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47927752556596,"sku":"ATHG87497","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATHG87497.jpg?v=1782224692","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/athg87497","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
