HO Trinity 3-Bay Hopper AGPX #96049 Model Train (ATHG97156)

HO Trinity 3-Bay Hopper is a detailed HO-scale model of Trinity Steel’s three-bay covered hopper, designed for realistic freight operations on model railroads. This replica brings the look of in-service North American cars to your layout, ideal for depicting bulk-loading scenes with agricultural products, sugar, and dry chemicals.

Two body styles reproduce the 10-panel and 12-panel variations, while an array of authentic details includes coupler cut levers and air hoses on each end, a separate brake cylinder, valve and air reservoir with wire brake plumbing, and a photo-etched metal roofwalk. The model rides on Genesis 100-ton trucks with animated spinning roller bearing caps, rolls on 36-inch machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for reliable operation on most brands of track, and is weighted for steady performance. It uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and a standard draft gear box with a screw-mounted lid, and supports minimum radii down to 18 inches. Primed for grime models, it presents the look of an in-service car with faded base colors and is an excellent starting point for adding grime and rust. Introduced around 1995, this three-bay hopper design became a common sight on Class I and short-line fleets across North America.
