Discover the Otter Valley Railroad's exclusive HO scale NSC 64 Ft 6400 CuFt Scrap and Trash Gondola, Middle CWSX #140037. Note that the picture might show a different road number. This gondola is a key player in construction and waste disposal, hauling waste to transfer sites. It's also great for carrying light - medium density steel and scrapping materials. You can spot these cars across North America in unit or manifest trains. Post - 2000 era model features include accurate ends, different offset slots for 7 - rung and 8 - rung ladder cars, a newly designed model using industry and field data, correct air reservoirs and brake levers in release position, metal wheels, coupler cut bars, correct air hoses, knuckle couplers, separately applied ladders, a fully detailed underbody, a near - scale draft gear box with specialized cushion detail, crisp painting and lettering like the prototype, and rotating roller - bearing wheel caps with appropriate Bremco or Timken branding.

This Otter Valley scrap and trash gondola is for your HO scale train setup. To use it, just connect it to your train using the knuckle coupler. It can be part of a unit train or a manifest train. When you're handling it, be careful not to damage the separately applied ladders and other detailed parts. To keep it in good shape, clean it gently with a soft brush every once in a while. Check the wheels regularly to make sure they rotate smoothly. If the paint starts to chip, you can touch it up with appropriate model paint. Also, store it in a dry place to prevent rusting on the metal parts.
