AF Wood Chip Hopper NS #9144 (not shown)
Take your hoppers to new heights with these
new models! As traffic sources changed, railroads
often repurposed older equipment for new
uses. Hoppers originally designed for coal
could also haul coke or wood chips, but with their
lighter density there was room for more capacity.
Many railroads simply worked around that issue by
raising the sides.
Equipped with a newly tooled extension, these
hoppers are ready to go into service on your
layout hauling coke, wood chips, sugar beets –
whatever you’d like to pile high! Each road name
is available in two road numbers.
Product Features
- Die-cast trucks and operating couplers
