Micro Trains ~ N Scale ~ 50' Airslide Hopper, Grand Trunk Western Rd# 316024 ~ 09800140



This 50’ Airslide Covered Hopper with 100-ton Barber Roller Bearing trucks was built in 1978 for Grand Trunk Western. With a special epoxy lining, these cars were specifically designed for use with fine-grained commodities, like powdered sugar, that could settle en route making unloading difficult. Grand Trunk Western Railroad traces its roots back to 1858 when the Chicago, Detroit & Canada Grand Trunk Junction Railroad was formed. GTW was later absorbed by Canadian National.
