It comes fully assembled and ready to run, allowing a layout to feature an authentic piece of era-appropriate freight equipment without extra setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eDesigned for reliable operation on HO tracks, it features a separate brake wheel, body-mounted scale knuckle couplers, 33-inch machined wheels with RP25 contours, and a weighted chassis for steady performance. The injection-molded, highly detailed body is painted and printed for realistic decoration, and the 18-inch minimum radius ensures smooth navigation on typical HO curves. These 50-foot mechanical reefers were delivered to many railroads during the mid- to late-1950s and 1960s as mechanical refrigeration displaced ice bunkers, marking a shift to more consistent cooling in freight service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Roundhouse Electric Trains (RND)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47942779174964,"sku":"RND-1438","price":40.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/RND-1438.jpg?v=1782400517","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/rnd-1438","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
