BLI Item #: 8111

 


We are proud to introduce a new production of Broadway Limited's newest HO scale freight car project - AAR 70-ton 3-bay hopper cars.  These hoppers were everywhere on the railroads - at their peak they made up about 6% of all open hoppers, and approximately 1.5% of the entire North American freight car fleet.  The first of these cars appeared in the late 1930's, and several were still in service in the 1980's! 

 


In all, over 33,000 cars were built to this design, by numerous manufacturers and for over 30 railroads.  The cars were used to transport coal, gravel, coke, and other bulk commodities across North America.   See below for more model features!
