HO 200T Crane/Tender DM&IR #X-7/2695 (ATH75422)
An HO scale 200-ton DM&IR crane and tender recreates a classic mid-century heavy-lift crane used in railroad maintenance and operations. The model features a rotating boom with a raise-and-lower mechanism, a flat car with boom-support arms, and a highly detailed body finished in realistic DM&IR livery.
Machined metal wheels with RP25 contours roll smoothly, it is weighted for stable operation, and body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers provide dependable coupling to adjacent cars. The finely detailed injection-molded body is painted and printed for authentic decoration, and the minimum curve radius is 18 inches, making it suitable for larger HO layouts. Historical notes explain that 200-ton cranes often required at least five idler cars between the locomotive and the crane during transit to provide braking power, a detail you can recreate to enhance realism in yard and industrial scenes.
