Atlas 20000973 HO Trainman 70-Ton 3-Bay Hopper, Peabody Coal (3) – Model Train Junction: Quality Parts and Art Supplies

This familiar hopper was an industry standard on many railroads since the 1930s. It was adopted by the AAR as a recommended design, but fell out of favor by the mid-1950s. While offering greater capacity over cars with conventional flat sides, the original open hoppers created corrosive interaction between acidic coal and the cars joints, leading to costly rebuilding programs.
