These models were designed to move grain and various bulk loads, making it a breeze to create a complete unit train.

Key features include: a one - time run of these road numbers (order now as quantities are limited), a model of a 4550 - cubic - foot National Steel Car, ready - to - run right out of the box, thousands used in North American grain and potash service since 1972, appropriate trough or round loading hatches, four different car numbers for each road name, see - through running boards, detailed brake gear, roof hatches and end ladders, correct 36' RP - 25 metal wheelsets, and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers.

Using your Walthers Mainline 59 - foot Cylindrical Hopper is super easy. Just place it on your HO scale track, and it's ready to roll as it's fully assembled. You can use it to create a cool unit train by adding more cars of the same type. When handling the hopper, be gentle with the detailed parts like the running boards and brake gear to avoid any damage. To keep it in good shape, clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. If you notice any dust in the wheelsets or couplers, use a small brush to clean them. Store the hopper in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the paint from fading.
