This is an Atlas HO scale model train, specifically the 20006852 Trinity 3230 Covered Hopper for Cargill Salt CLSX #3211 in gray and black. The picture might show a different road number. The Trinity 3230 Pressure Differential covered hopper is a smaller version of TrinityRail's 5660 PD, developed from a late - 1990s Thrall Car design. Its smaller size allows it to carry heavier loads like cement and different grades of fly ash, mostly operated by railcar leasing companies or shippers. It comes with amazing features such as all - new tooling, ready - to - run functionality, injection - molded plastic construction, fine - scale details, separately applied wire grab irons and cut levers, etched metal roofwalks, crisp painting and printing, and metal couplers.

Using this Atlas HO scale covered hopper model is a breeze. Just place it on your model train track, and it's ready to roll as it's already set to run. When handling the model, be gentle with the separately applied wire grab irons and cut levers as they can be fragile. Avoid knocking or pulling on them too hard. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off any dust that accumulates on the injection - molded plastic body and the etched metal roofwalks. If the metal couplers get dirty, you can use a mild metal cleaner to clean them, but make sure to dry them thoroughly before using the model again. Store the model in a cool, dry place to prevent any damage from moisture or extreme temperatures.
