Product Information:
Bluford Shops is announcing a new group of runs on our N scale USRA 30’6” 2-Bay Hopper. These ready-to-run cars feature: die cast slope sheet-hopper bay-center sill assembly; injection molded plastic sides, ends, and hopper doors; fully molded brake tank, valve and air lines; coal load; lever-style hand brake; body mounted magnetically operating knuckle couplers; close coupling; and metal wheels.
These cars were ordered by USRA but not delivered to Chesapeake & Ohio until 10 months after the end of the war. The scattershot application of dimensional data was common during this period. The C.T. suffix to the road number is likely an equipment trust designation and was used on USRA hoppers of other railroads as well. These cars are coming in 6 road numbers
