Micro-Trains Line 09300200 - 3-Bay Covered Hopper, Round Hatches American Car & Foundry (ACFX) 47900 - N Scale

Three-bay covered hoppers are designed to carry everything from grain, to plastic pellets, to dry chemicals depending on the needs of the lessee. This ACF-owned covered hopper with Barber Roller Bearing Trucks was leased by Utah-Idaho Sugar Company (also called U and I Sugar), a large sugar beet processing organization originally owned and operated by a large U.S.-based church. The company was sold off in the 1980s and renamed AgraWest. Today, it is focused primarily on Brazilian sugar production.
