Conrail H39B Hoppers

[rrdiesel87]

I have been working on some hopper sets based on the fantastic and user friendly 3-bay 70ton models from North American V-Scale that i should have prepped for release soon.

The first will be a set of Conrail H39B hoppers seen here.

Conrail class HE7E,H39,H39A,HR1C,and H37 will follow along with WM, B&O, C&O, CSXT, SBD, and Chessie later

As with the original NAVS hoppers these will be ORTS only.

These look GREAT

I was thinking I should do something like this. But thinking doesn't get far without action! I'm glad you're doing it - I'm not sure I would have.

Looks pretty good.

I would love to see someone make the peaked-end hoppers that C&O, N&W and Virginian used a lot of in the West Virginia Appalachians during the 50s and 60s (and probably before, I just don't go that far back).

4 CR H39B and 16 various B&O/C&O/WM/Chessie have been uploaded to the fl.
