Between 1972 and 1985 almost 20,000 cars were built for the Canadian government to assist the Canadian railways in transporting vast quantities of grain. Canadian National, Canadian Pacific, and other companies own or lease this type of car. The trough hatch cars feature road name specific parallel ribbed roof hatches, diagonal ribbed "zig-zag" roof hatches, or smooth flat hatches as per the prototype. All cars feature numerous wire details, etched metal roof walks, laser sharp painting and lettering, accurate colors, 100 ton trucks with InterMountain 36" precision metal wheelsets, and metal knuckle couplers HOPPER HISTORY :Long ago, granular bulk commodities like wheat and sugar traveled in box cars. At the time, box cars were the best option for shipping dry bulk commodities by rail, as they provided protection from moisture. But then, a better option arrived: covered hoppers, which combined the protection of boxcars with the easy loading and unloading hoppers provide. With a protective roof and openings at the bottom that allow products to flow through using gravity, covered hoppers became the preferred way to ship dry bulk commodities in need of protection from the elements.Covered hoppers look just like traditional hopper cars, with fixed sides and ends, but instead of an open top they have roofs with airtight hatches that protect the contents inside from the elements and other contaminants.The inside of a covered hopper has anywhere from two to four separated bays, which can be loaded and unloaded individually. The number of bays a covered hopper has depends on the weight of the product: heavier products travel in covered hoppers with fewer bays.The bottom of a covered hopper has chutes (also known as “gates”) that can be opened to unload the product. Each bay has its own chute, and these chutes are angled so product can flow through quickly and easily.TYPES:Small covered hopper: Small covered hoppers have two bays and two gates and typically carry heavier products like cement, roofing granules and sand. Small covered hopper cars are 42 feet in length and can carry loads ranging from 207,000 to 233,000 pounds.Large covered hopper: Large covered hoppers have three bays and three gates and typically carry commodities like corn, wheat, barley, fertilizer and soda ash. Large covered hopper cars are 60-65 feet long and can carry loads ranging from 197,000 to 224,000 pounds.Food-grade covered hopper: Food-grade covered hoppers have three or four bays and feature double outlet gates to reduce exposure to contamination. They also have lined interiors to keep conditions safe for food products like rice, malt and sugar. Food-grade covered hopper cars are 60-65 feet long and can carry loads ranging from 197,000 to 222,000 pounds.* Intermountain Railway * HO Scale* CYLINDRICAL COVERED Hopper * Features:* Sharp Painting and Lettering* SEE-THRU Walkways* Etched Metal Roofwalks* Metal Grab Railings* Metal Grab Irons* Metal Cut Levers* Metal Knuckle Couplers* 36" InterMountain Metal Wheelsets* Minimum Radius - 22" Molded exerior details include:# Grab Irons# Ladders# Brake Gear# Piping# Hatches# Doors# Underframe# Underframe Details * New in box* Ready to run LETTERING is Sharp and Clear SHIPPING: We do combine shipping on multiple purchases.
