HO 40' Gondola - Santa Fe #64999 - Oxide Red is a detailed model train designed for realistic railway modelling and layout expansion in HO scale.

Featuring:

• Detail & Finish: This 40' gondola features the iconic Oxide Red livery with the Santa Fe #64999 markings. It showcases fine moulded details, including realistic rivet and paneling work, faithfully capturing the essence of the prototype. Printed markings and weathered effects add to its authentic appearance.
• Drive & Performance: As a freight wagon, the gondola does not have a motor. It is designed to be pulled by a locomotive or compatible rolling stock. Smooth rolling performance on standard tracks ensures reliable operation on DC layouts.
• Control & Compatibility: This model operates on DC analogue systems. DCC compatibility and factory-installed DCC or sound features are not available for this model. Control system information is not available for DCC operation.
• Couplings & Integration: The gondola uses standard HO-scale couplings, which are compatible with most other HO rolling stock. Close-coupling mechanism is not specified, and compatibility with specific brands is not guaranteed unless explicitly stated.
