Kato N Scale
Bethgon Coalporter Car
Prototype Information
Since 1982, the BethGon Coalporter has been hauling "black diamonds" across the United States. The largest selling Coal Gondola in the world, the car's double tub design increases hauling capacity while reducing maintenance requirements. Tubs below the car lower the center of gravity, providing a smoother ride.
With thousands upon thousands of these cars in service, we are certain that the BethGon Coalporter will find a home on model railroads everywhere.
Model Information
One of the advantages of N scale modeling is the ability for hobbyists to recreate long trains. And while hauling black diamonds from mines, coal unit trains are some of the longest and most common trains on rails today.
Like Kato's previous releases of these coal hoppers, Kato's BethGon
Coalporter is the ideal blend of operating functionality and scaled reality.
The removable coal load lets operators run full or empty between coal mine and terminal.
The shock absorber construction and low-flange metal wheels provide smooth operation.
The internal bracing of the tub, close coupling between cars and detail lettering on these cars make them look just like the real equipment.
