Great Northern #2 (gray, black, red, Slanted Lettering, Small Rocky Logo)
This ready-to-run N Scale Pullman-Standard PS-2 2-Bay Covered Hopper from Micro-Trains is perfect for your transition and classic diesel-era layout. During the mid-1950's, Pullman-Standard developed a revolutionary all-welded steel, 2,003 cubic-foot two-bay covered hopper that would become one of the most popular cars of its type with railroads and private industry. The PS-2 had a dividing wall inside so multiple products could be carried at the same time and its eight round hatches allowed for quick, efficient loading. It was designed to haul everything from powdered chemicals, to grains, to construction materials such as sand or cement. Versatile and durable, this car continued in revenue service into the early 2000's, and is still sometimes found in maintenance-of-way service. This detailed model features separate roof hatches, a fine-scale cored-through plastic walkway, 33" factory-installed metal wheels, proper ride height, body-mounted Magne-Matic(R) couplers with blackened trip pins, and fine decoration.
