A highly detailed n scale kit to add a cover to an AAR style 55 ton hopper car. Modeled to scale realistic proportions without any specific prototype in mind. This kit includes hopper doors, roof section, and a cat walk that you can paint and weather to match your fleet.
The practice of converting open hoppers to covered was common in the early days of covered hopper cars. Typically used for cement or other dry goods these specialized cars were usually built in house at the railroad and would vary greatly between companies.
Modeled in American N scale (1:160), this kit is true to scale and size. Due to variations in the industry it may be a little large or small depending what scale your surrounding details are in.
Made with high quality resin and presented as a kit ready for your finishing.
