Atlas 20005775 ACF 3 Bay Covered Hopper ACFX - CANCARB #60245 HO Scale

The Atlas 20005775 ACF 3-Bay Covered Hopper in HO Scale is a great addition to your model train collection. The picture might show a different road number. Introduced in 1961 by ACF®, this cylindrical hopper was the first commercially successful tank - type covered hopper car design for hauling sand, clay, salt, grain, and bulk plastics. Even today, some of the over 4,000 cars of this type built before 1966 are still in service across the US. It features see - through roof walks, blackened metal wheels, free - rolling 100 - ton trucks, detailed brake gear, AccuMate® couplers, and fine painting and printing.

Using this model train car is easy. Just connect it to your existing train setup with the AccuMate® couplers. It'll look great rolling along with other cars in your collection. When handling it, be gentle to avoid any damage to the fine details like the see - through roof walks and the detailed brake gear. For maintenance, keep it clean by gently dusting it with a soft brush. If it gets dirty, you can use a mild cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe it down. Store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent any fading of the fine painting and printing. And remember, though the picture might show a different road number, your car's unique features are just as great!
