  • Walthers Mainline 50' Bethgon Gondola - 3-Pack brings a staple of the coal industry to your HO Scale railroad with a detailed model of the Bethgon Coalporter Gondola. Prototypes for this distinctive freight car remain a common sight in unit trains operating across the North American rail network, making it an excellent choice for modern and transition-era coal operations.
  • Built by Bethlehem Steel's Johnstown American Corporation, the Bethgon features all-aluminum construction and a unique trough-style bottom designed to provide additional carrying capacity. Unlike freight cars equipped with bottom discharge chutes, these gondolas are unloaded strictly by rotary dump, making them an important part of specialized coal transportation operations.
  • The Walthers Mainline 50' Bethgon Gondola - 3-Pack is appropriate for layouts set from the 1970s to the present day, giving modelers considerable flexibility when creating realistic coal unit trains. The three-pack includes three cars with different road numbers, making it possible to build a more varied and authentic-looking train.
  • Each car features crisply printed graphics and legible stencils on the sides and ends. Individually molded and applied internal bracing adds additional visible detail, while scale 36-inch diameter turned metal wheels provide accurate-looking running gear. Proto MAX Metal Knuckle Couplers complete the model with dependable-looking freight car detailing.
  • For modelers building coal trains or expanding a modern HO Scale freight fleet, the Walthers Mainline 50' Bethgon Gondola - 3-Pack offers a convenient way to add three distinctive cars with different road numbers and detailed prototype-inspired features.
