Discover the Otter Valley Railroad's exclusive HO scale NSC 64 Ft 6000 Cubic Gondola HS - AIMX #21031. The picture might show a different road number. This gondola is widely used in the scrap and metal industries, seen across North America in unit or manifest train services since 2018. It features accurate ends and sloting, different offset slots for 7 - rung and 8 - rung ladder cars, and is designed using industry sources and field measurements. With metal wheels, knuckle couplers, separately applied ladders, and a fully detailed underbody, it also has a near - scale draft gear box and crisp painting and lettering like the prototype. The rotating wheel caps have appropriate Bremco or Timken branding.

Using this HO scale gondola is easy. Simply place it on your model train tracks and let it be part of your train set. It's suitable for creating scenes related to the scrap and metal industries. When handling, be gentle to avoid any damage to the separately applied ladders and other delicate parts. To maintain it, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the surface and wheels regularly. Keep it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the paint and lettering from fading. If you notice any loose parts, you can use small glue or fasteners to secure them, but make sure to do it carefully so as not to damage the model.
