ATLAS 50006344 3500 Dry-Flo 3 bay hopper WR Grace GACX #50304 (gray, green) N Scale

The ATLAS Master 50006344 General American 3500 Dry-Flo 3-Bay Covered Hopper in N Scale, WR Grace GACX #50304 with gray and green colors. Note that the picture might show a different road number. The 3500 Cubic Foot Dry-Flo Covered Hopper was a key commodity hauler for over 40 years. In 1959, General American began making these hoppers to meet the demand for larger ones for bulk commodities. The covered hopper innovations in the 1950s were great for shippers who needed to handle more specialized commodities like oats and malt. This N Scale Dry-Flo is engineered from prototype blueprints, with accurate body and paint details, just as you'd expect from Atlas. Features include ready-to-run, injection-molded plastic, fine-scale detail, separate brake detail, chemically etched brake platform, accurate painting/printing, prototypical ride height, 70-Ton ASF Ride Control Trucks, 33' metal wheels, and a body-mounted scale coupler.

Using this N Scale ATLAS Master 3500 Dry-Flo 3-Bay Covered Hopper is easy. It's ready-to-run, so you can start using it right out of the box. When handling it, be gentle to avoid damaging the fine-scale details. Keep it away from sharp objects. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to clean the body and wheels. If there's dirt on the brake parts, you can use a small brush to carefully clean them. Store it in a dry place to prevent any rust or damage to the plastic and metal parts. That way, your hopper will look great and work well for a long time.
