N NSC 6400 Gondola with Load, MRRX #4300 (ATHGN12580)

An N-scale rendition of National Steel Car’s 6,400 cubic-foot gondola with load, this detailed model adds a modern bulk car to an N-scale roster. It includes a removable scrap load for realistic freight displays and features separately applied metal grab irons, etched crossover platforms where applicable, precise brake piping in metal and plastic, bent wire coupler cut levers, and rubber train-line hoses. The car rides on screw-mounted 100-ton roller-bearing trucks with body-mounted knuckle couplers, and machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for smooth, prototypical operation. It is weighted for steady performance, finished with authentic painting and printing, and compatible with most popular track brands, with a minimum radius of 11 inches and a recommended radius of 15 inches.

Prototype fidelity and build details: Introduced by National Steel Car in 2006, these gondolas are reproduced with multiple build variations in mind, including top-chord and end configurations, full brake rigging, grab irons, and etched crossover platforms. State-of-the-art tooling captures these nuances, and the inclusion of a removable scrap load alongside a detailed injection-molded body delivers a convincing, ready-to-run addition to a modern freight roster on an N-scale layout.
