Offset side 70 ton 3-bay hoppers first appeared in the late 1920s but by the late 30s they had evolved into the AAR standard design seen here. They were built in large quantities by many builders until the mid-1960s. Many remained in service through the 1980s.

Features:

- Friction bearing or roller bearing trucks as appropriate for each road name
- fully molded air tank and valve with piping, slope sheet braces
- body mounted brake hose detail
- separate brake cylinder, rod and lever detail (a first on an N scale open hopper!)
- body mounted magnetically operating couplers
- coal load
- diecast slope sheets and center sill
- and injection molded plastic sides, ends and hopper doors

All runs will be available in multiple road numbers (a single and one of each of the multi-packs gives you one of each road number available.)
