Dear HO Scale Customers;

Atlas has announced the Trinity 3230 Covered Hoppers

Atlas Master is Atlas’ premier line of high-end, fully detailed locomotives and freight cars that are the pinnacle of Atlas’ research, development and engineering. Atlas Master Line Rolling Stock items are highly detailed models that faithfully recreate the prototype down to the paint scheme and even railroad-specific details. The Atlas Master Plus line incorporates all of the features of the Master line, PLUS etched details, walkways, grating, separate piping, metal couplers and many other fine details. This is as close to real as it gets.

The Trinity 3230 Pressure Differential covered hopper is essentially a smaller version of TrinityRail’s 5660 PD. The smaller version was developed from the base design introduced by Thrall Car in the late 1990s. The smaller size enables the cars to be loaded with heavier ladings such as cement and various grades of fly ash. Most of the cars are operated by Railcar (Leasing) companies or Shippers.

Features:

• Ready to run

• Injection molded plastic

• Fine scale detail

• Separately applied wire grab irons

• Separately applied wire cut levers

• Etched metal roofwalks

• Crisp painting and printing
