HO 52' Mill Gondola DRGW #56381/56387/56424 (ATH-1983)
HO-scale 52-foot DRGW Mill Gondola is an open-top freight car designed for HO layouts, built to haul large, bulky loads such as coil steel or scrap metal. It captures the look and purpose of a real yard workhorse, bringing industrial realism to model railroad scenes.
Ready to run straight from the box, the gondola features refined detailing—from end sheets to rivet work and wire grab irons—plus body-mounted scale-knuckle couplers. It rolls on 33-inch nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contours for compatibility with most HO track brands and is weighted for stable, dependable performance. With razor-sharp painting and printing and options in multi-pack sets with unique road numbers, it handles modest curves with an 18-inch minimum radius, reflecting the practical role of open-top gondolas in crane-loaded shipments.
