    1 In Stock at Our Warehouse

    Add an authentic piece of Penn Central–era coal country railroading to your HO scale layout with the Accurail 81851 AAR 70-Ton Offset-Side 3-Bay Hopper kit. Decorated for the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad as car #3458, this model captures a workhorse design that hauled coal, ore, and aggregates across the eastern U.S. from the steam-to-diesel transition right through the Penn Central years. About this Kit Accurail freight car kits are famous for being some of the most beginner-friendly plastic models on the market. The one-piece body keeps assembly simple while still showing crisp rivet, panel, and seam detail. Snap-together trucks, plastic wheels, and Accumate knuckle couplers are included so you can have a finished, ready-to-roll car on the rails in under an hour — no decals, no painting, and no tools beyond a small screwdriver required. Key Features Highly detailed one-piece molded body with crisp lettering for P&LE #3458, including the Penn Central herald used after the 1968 merger. AAR 70-Ton 3-bay offset-side hopper prototype — a near-universal car for steam, transition, and early Conrail eras. Easy snap-fit assembly with plastic wheels and Accumate knuckle couplers preinstalled or included. Authentic boxcar-red and black scheme with white P&LE reporting marks and capacity data. Compatible with all standard HO scale track and most other Kadee-compatible couplers. What's Included One unassembled Accurail HO scale AAR 70-Ton Offset-Side 3-Bay Hopper kit. Pre-painted and pre-lettered one-piece body for P&LE #3458. Trucks with plastic wheels. Accumate knuckle couplers (Kadee-compatible). Illustrated instruction sheet. Specifications Brand Accurail Item Number 81851 Scale HO (1:87) Roadname Pittsburgh & Lake Erie (P&LE / Penn Central system) Road Number 3458 Car Type AAR 70-Ton Offset-Side 3-Bay Hopper Era Transition / Modern (late 1960s – 1970s) Material Plastic Couplers Accumate knuckle (Kadee-compatible) Skill Level Beginner — simple snap-together assembly Condition New, unbuilt kit in original packaging Frequently Asked Questions Is this kit ready to run, or does it need to be assembled?This is an unassembled Accurail kit, but it’s about as easy as plastic kits get. Most builders can complete one in 30–60 minutes without paint, decals, or special tools. What couplers does it come with?Accumate knuckle couplers are included. They’re fully compatible with Kadee #5 and other standard HO knuckle couplers, so it’ll work right alongside the rest of your fleet. What era is this car appropriate for?The AAR 70-Ton offset-side 3-bay hopper was used from the 1940s through the 1980s. The P&LE #3458 paint scheme with the Penn Central herald fits anywhere from roughly 1968 through the late 1970s, making it a great fit for transition-era, Penn Central, and early Conrail layouts. Will the metal wheels from Accurail or another brand fit?Yes — the plastic wheels can be swapped for any standard 33" HO metal wheelset (such as Intermountain, Kadee, or Accurail metal wheel packs) for quieter, smoother running.
