Dear HO Scale Customers;

Athearn has announced a new run of Drop-Frame Spread Axle Chassis with Tank Containers. Check them out!

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:

The tank container chassis was specifically designed to hold ISO tank containers containing both hazardous and non-hazardous bulk liquids. Due to their shifting contents, tanks are at greater risk for turn-over accidents. The drop-frame of the tank chassis has a lower center of gravity to compensate for this tendency. 20ft ISO tank container chassis are generally used in ports, shipyards, routes, and transfer stations for transporting 20ft ISO tank containers.

MODEL FEATURES:

• Tank container and chassis are seperateable

• Chassis includes raided and lowered landing gear

• Lift kit in lowered position installed, raised lift kit included in packaging

• Constructed from 47 separate parts for a highly detailed and accurate model

• Packaged with two cargo lifting bag option, either in transit locked down, or unlocked and lifted for tank draining

• Bent wire landing gear hand crank

• Rubber wheels on metal axels

• Etched metal walkway platform

• Air tanks and air suspension details

• Compatible with all Athearn 20’ containers
