HO ATH PS 4740 Covered Hopper BNSF #431427 (ATH-2361)
HO-scale Athearn PS 4740 Covered Hopper in BNSF livery is a ready-to-run model that brings a classic PS 4740 freight car to your layout. Fully assembled and prepared to roll, it features detailed painting and lettering to convincingly reproduce a real in service hopper.
On the track, it rides on 36-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and roller-bearing trucks, with body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers for reliable, scale-accurate coupling. Weighted for steady performance and designed to run smoothly on common brands of track, it offers razor-sharp painting and printing and a minimum turning radius of 18 inches. The finish is primed for grime, delivering an authentic in service appearance with faded base colors that provide a natural starting point for adding grime and rust as a layout evolves.
