HO ACF 4600 3-Bay Center Flow Hopper ATSF #314337 (ATHG15432)

HO-scale Santa Fe 3-Bay Center Flow Hopper with a 4,600 cubic-foot capacity reproduces the mid-1960s American Car and Foundry design built for grain and other bulk loads. The Center Flow body uses a rounded shape to provide structural strength and to simplify gravity unloading, a hallmark that helped railroads replace older boxcars in bulk-service work. The model is finished in Santa Fe livery with road number 314337, capturing a representative appearance from that era.

Fully assembled and ready to run, this model is accurately painted and printed. It offers period-accurate detail: three body styles representing production eras, round or trough hatches, a photo-etched roofwalk, and separately applied wire grab irons and stirrup steps; multiple outlet versions; a separate brake cylinder, valve, and air reservoir with wire brake plumbing; a separately applied brake wheel; screw-mounted trucks; body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers; and a weighted chassis for smooth operation. It rides on Genesis 100-ton trucks with 36-inch machined metal wheels and animated spinning roller bearing caps, and includes multiple road numbers for layout variety.
