The ATLAS 50005897 is an N scale PS-2 covered hopper representing the Central of Georgia #1000, painted in gray and black. Note that the picture might show a different road number. Built by Pullman Standard from the late 1940s to the 1950s, these hoppers were used to carry granular bulk goods like cement, soda ash, sand, and grain. Key features include 50 - ton friction bearings or 70 - ton roller bearings (depending on the road name), detailed brake work, Accumate® couplers, and high - quality painting and printing.

Using this ATLAS N scale PS - 2 covered hopper is easy. You can place it on your N scale railroad track just like any other car. It will look great as part of your train set. When handling it, be gentle to avoid any damage to the delicate brake details and couplers. To keep it in good condition, you can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off any dust regularly. Don't use any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they might damage the fine painting and printing. If you're storing it for a long time, keep it in a cool, dry place to prevent any warping or discoloration.
