HO 33,900-Gallon LPG Tank UTLX #2 Model (ATHG25593)
HO Scale 33,900-Gallon LPG Tank Car, UTLX No. 2 is an HO‑scale model that recreates a prototype LPG tanker with authentic UTLX markings and a sizable 33,900‑gallon capacity, making it a realistic addition to freight trains on HO layouts.
Designed for prototypical operation, this model features three body phases—early, flat panel, and late—and includes separately applied walkway platforms, manways, outlets, ladders, brake rigging detail, safety rail supports, and tank saddles. It also showcases photo-etched walkways and end platforms, wire safety rails and end handrails, a fully detailed underframe with brakes mounted as in the prototype, printed placards, and body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers. The car rides on 100‑ton trucks with animated rotating bearing caps, machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, and accurate painting and printing. Additional realism comes from coupler lift bars, trainline hoses, brake hoses, and hardware, and the assembly is weighted for smooth operation. Minimum radius is 18 inches, with a recommended radius of 22 inches for best performance on typical HO layouts.
