N NSC 6000 Gondola with Load TLPX #2248 (ATHGN6727)

NSC 6000 Gondola Car with Load is an N-scale model that faithfully reproduces National Steel Car’s 6,000-cubic-foot capacity gondolas. It’s designed to enrich a modern freight roster on a model railroad and includes a removable scrap load to add realism to yard and interchange scenes.

Key details include separately applied metal grab irons, etched crossover platforms, and precise brake piping (metal and plastic), along with bent wire cut levers and rubber train-line hoses. The model rides on screw-mounted 100-ton roller-bearing trucks and body-mounted McHenry lower-shelf knuckle couplers, while machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and a weighted injection-molded body deliver smooth, stable operation. Accurately painted and printed for prototypical realism, this NSC 6000 gondola captures the look and heft of the real 6,000-cubic-foot cars.
