Product Description:

Built by Trinity and other car builders, the 37' 2980 cubic-foot 2-bay hopper remains a common sight on today’s railroads. Since the late 1980s, these hoppers have hauled cement, fracking sand, roofing granules and other bulk material across the North American railroad network.

The brake wheel and hopper gates are separately applied detail parts for added realism. Each HO car rides on accurate 36 scale inch diameter metal wheels while Proto MAX metal knuckle couplers ensure years of reliable operation.
