Description
HO Open Sided Excursion Car, East Broad Top 168, is an HO-scale replica of a historic open-sided passenger car from the East Broad Top Railroad in central Pennsylvaniaâ€â€a line described by the Smithsonian as an irreplaceable national treasure. The model captures the open-air design and includes a full interior with detailed roof underside, simulated wood flooring, and bench seating, delivering authentic passenger-era charm to HO layouts.
With HO-scale accuracy, it features magnetically operated E-Z Mate couplers, blackened metal wheels with RP25 contours, as well as separately applied handrails, a brake wheel, and stirrups. The painted body carries roadname-specific graphics and heralds, and the undercarriage is fully detailed with see-through sideframes. These features help recreate a convincing East Broad Top scene and pair well with era-appropriate freight and passenger cars for a complete historical display.
