Description The
prototypes for this model were built as early as 1937 and
into the 60s. Many are still in service today.
This design had a life span that is truly enormous.
The last cars of this design were built in the 1960's --
three decades after the first cars were built for Santa
Fe. Quite a few of these cars are still in service.
Because you have to stand on the roof in order to open the
hatches, these cars were immune from the "No Roof Walk"
rule of 1964, but a number would be scrapped when friction
bearing trucks were outlawed. Amazingly, some cars
are now being retired because they have hit the Federal
Railroad Administration's 50 year rule! The deLuxe
models of these common cars are weighted with the same copper
slugs used in our box cars for superior tracking and immunity
to magnetism. Most releases feature more than one
paint scheme variation within a road name. For instance,
the Missouri Pacific set features cars delivered with MP
reporting marks and painted "corrosion resistant gray"
that is actually a tan color, and cars lettered for MoPac
subsidiaries Missouri-Illinois and St. Louis Brownsville
& Mexico (both carrying the traditional buzz saw logo)
that are painted in a more traditional gray color.
Some of the more modern paint schemes including Delaware
& Hudson and National Bureau of Standards have the four-color
ACI tags. ACI stands for Automated Car Identification
and worked like a grocery store bar code reader using a
color TV camera instead of a laser. Unfortunately, the tags
couldn't be read if they were dirty and the system fell
out of favor by the early 1980's. This aspect of 70's railroading
is rarely modeled but we include it on appropriate cars.
Originally designed at the height of the Great Depression,
the first ten cars of this design were delivered to Santa
Fe in an austere black paint scheme. Covered hoppers
have always been used for any bulk cargo that had to be
protected from the elements. Some have the impression
that covered hoppers are used mostly for grain. Nothing
can be further from the truth. In fact, moving grain
in covered hoppers has only been commonplace since the 1960's.
Before that period, most grain moved in 40' box cars with
grain doors temporarily nailed over the doorways.
In the steam era, covered hoppers were used for cement,
sand, clay, talc, and other powders. The cargo was
loaded through eight square hatches in the roof.
To empty the car, the hatches at the bottom are opened and
the load spills out. At this point, some low man on
the company ladder would have to climb into the car with
a broom and sweep out the corners and the center sill.
The American Car & Foundry covered hopper design was
such a success that it became a defacto standard for years.
Even Pullman-Standard (ACF's arch enemy) built cars to the
same design. The distinctive open triangles in the
sides make these cars easily distinguishable even from a
distance. ACF would also develop a version without
the open triangles which was not as prolific as the version
presented here. Amazingly, many of these cars are still
in use today, in MOW and lineside service. Many have
been rebuilt as ballast hoppers, including for SP, CSX,
Amtrak, and Santa Fe. |

Item Description
|
|
Stock Checks:
Inventory is a fluid commodity. It changes by the
hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure
we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each
year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order
in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm
that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order
it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson.
When we held items for customers’ orders, the order
never materialized 80%+ of the time. We lost out on
the orders placed while the item was on hold. Also
we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual
orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact
that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not
mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms
pages, we don’t do it anymore.< face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items
are available and if possible attempt to locate what we
don’t have while you are on the phone. |
