N PS-2 2893 3-Bay Covered Hopper WCTX #088 (ATH-1731)
An N-scale three-bay covered hopper modeled after the Pullman-Standard PS-2 design, this freight car provides a faithful representation of bulk-commodity service on a model railroad. It captures the look of cars used to haul materials like grain, cement, and plastic pellets across North American rails, making it a credible addition to any layout.
Detail is built into the model with separately applied roof hatches, brake wheel, and walkway, plus separately applied outlets and braces. It rides on body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for smooth performance on common track, and it can negotiate a minimum 11-inch radius. The weathering-ready finish reproduces the look of an in-service car with faded base colors matched to the prototype, providing a perfect starting point for adding grime and rust. Historically, Pullman-Standard's PS-2 family dominated the covered hopper market from the 1950s, making these cars a familiar and utilitarian workhorse on North American rails.
