The WalthersMainline 59 - foot cylindrical hoppers are well - detailed, fully assembled, and affordably priced, making it a breeze to expand your train fleet. Key features include: a one - time run of these road numbers with limited quantity available, a model of a 4550 - cubic - foot National Steel Car, ready - to - run assembly, thousands in use in North American grain and potash service since 1972, appropriate trough or round loading hatches, four different car numbers for each roadname, 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 this Walthers HO scale cylindrical hopper is easy. Just place it on your model railway track, and it's ready to run as it comes fully assembled. You can connect it to other cars in your train using the Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers. When handling the hopper, be gentle to avoid damaging the detailed brake gear, roof hatches, and end ladders. Also, take care not to put too much stress on the see - through running boards. For maintenance, keep it clean from dust and debris. You can use a soft brush to clean the wheels and couplers regularly. Store it in a dry place when not in use to prevent any rusting of the metal parts like the wheelsets and couplers.
