New Model!
O PRR
H21a Hopper
One of the most familiar Pennsylvania Railroad
freight cars of all time, the H21a was also the largest single hopper
car class on the PRR. With over 39,000 cars built, the H21a had an
amazing history of service and longevity with several hundred cars
lasting well into the Penn Central era. During the 1940s and
early 1950s, these hoppers were leased to both the Norfolk & Western
and Virginian railroads. Atlas O's version is realistically duplicated
from designs based upon actual historical documentation of the lease
agreements.
Features Include:
ABS and die-cast construction
Extremely accurate 1/4" scale details and dimensions
Designed from the actual PRR blueprints
Wire handrails and grab irons
Accurate painting and printing
Die-cast stirrups

Please note: Atlas "O" scale couplers can also be
used on both 2-rail and 3-rail versions.
Eight road numbers will be
available per road name, except for Penn Central MOW, which has four
road numbers.
