N Scale Open Hopper

N Scale Open Hopper Cars

When you’re looking to move bulk material via the railways, an N Scale open hopper is the best option. The material placed in open hoppers is immune to poor weather conditions, making these cars ideal for transporting heavy freight loads containing coal, gravel, and sand.  

Midwest Model Railroad offers a vast selection of these effective train cars that you likely see zooming down the tracks daily. We have a rapid discharge for Norfolk Southern, a twin-bay hopper for Medford, Talent, and Lakecreek, a 100-ton 3-bay hopper from Coal Load CSX, and more! 

The world couldn’t operate without open hopper cars transporting material, and nor could your model railroad without one of our N Scale open hoppers.
