N 33,900-Gallon LPG Tank GATX #1 (3) (ATHGN16895)
This N-scale model reproduces a 33,900-gallon LPG tank car in the GATX fleet, built for realistic freight operation on modern N-scale layouts. It captures three distinct body phases—early, flat panel and late—and includes a separately applied walkway platform, manway, outlet, ladders, brake rigging detail, safety rail supports, tank saddles and a brake wheel to deliver prototypical realism.
Detailed features include photo-etched walkways and end platforms, wire safety rails and end handrails, printed placards, screw-mounted 100-ton roller bearing trucks, machined RP25 wheels, and a weighty injection-molded body for stable running on most popular track. The model comes with multiple road numbers for roster variety (singles and three-packs), and upgrades such as McHenry double-shelf couplers, bent-wire uncoupling levers and rubber train-line hoses. It’s designed to operate on common N-scale track with a minimum radius of 9¾ inches and a recommended radius of 11 inches.
