HO 16,000 Gallon Clay Tank TILX #135552 (ATH16397)
HO scale 16,000-gallon clay tank car is a detailed model for HO layout use, designed to reproduce the real clay-hauling tanker used in freight service. The model mirrors a modern 16,000-gallon tank car with a 111-inch diameter tank and roughly 44 feet in length, built to a 286K gross rail load class with AAR Plate C clearance, and it features a funnel-flow bottom unloading design for realistic operation on a layout.
Detail highlights include full brake plumbing and rigging, see-through photo-etched walkways and end fittings, and separately applied fittings such as a nozzle and manway. It also features wire platform railings, ladders, placard holders, and printed markings across the tank, adding authentic visual detail. The car rides on 36-inch nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contours for smooth operation on HO track and uses AAR upper and lower shelf couplers. Designed for HO layouts with a minimum turning radius of 18 inches, the model captures the prototype’s lined interior and dedicated-service character to prevent cross-contamination while enriching any clay-tank car fleet.
