On the N&W, hoppers were the most common type of freight cars on their roster – about a 4-to-1 ratio of hopper cars over all other cars combined. The H2a was the most common type and was numbered from 15,500 – 25,499; 26,000 – 26,999; 28,500 – 29,999; and 31,000 – 31,999. That’s one impressive class! N&W also leased these hopper cars to the PRR and B&O where they were painted in their respective schemes. BLI offers these hoppers also.
The Roanoke Shops built 13,500 H2a hoppers between 1948 – 1956 and approximately 2,000 were leased to the Pennsy.
This release includes a variety of 6-Pack schemes to choose from.
