PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:

The 2-bay covered hopper first entered service in the 1950s. The cars handle loads such as cement, sand and similar denser bulk commodities. In the 1960s, American Car and Foundry introduced the Centerflow design. The car’s rounded body provided structural strength without the added weight of bracing, as well as making gravity unloading easier. This 2-bay car came in a 2,970-cubic foot capacity.

 

MODEL FEATURES:

• Round or trough hatches

• Separately applied wire grab irons

• Multiple road numbers

• Highly detailed, injection molded body

• Separately applied brake wheel

• Body mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers

• 3-Pack available with unique road numbers; perfect for modeling a unit train

• Photo-etched metal roof walk

• Detailed outlets

• Accurately painted and printed

• Machined metal wheels

• Weighted for trouble-free operation

• Separate brake cylinder, valve and air reservoir with brake plumbing

• Minimum radius: 9¾”
