HO 40' Ribbed 3-Bay Ballast Hopper NS #994677 (ATH7639)
This HO-scale 40-foot ribbed, three-bay ballast hopper model recreates a Norfolk Southern open-car, built to haul ballast and other loose bulk loads on a model railroad layout.
Features include a removable load, separately applied wire grab irons and brake wheel, solid nickel-silver wheels with RP25 contours, weighted for optimum performance, and body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers. The highly detailed injection-molded body is painted and printed for realistic decoration, and the model is designed for an 18-inch minimum radius, ensuring smooth operation on standard HO track and an authentic ballast-hopper silhouette.
