Prototypical N&W Hoppers

Patrick HOGR Forum Member

I seen that MTH 2013 Vol2 pg 127 is making 6 packs of the N&W 2 bay HL fishbelly hoppers.I am in my infancy in learning to be more prototypical of the cars pulled behind the Y's and Class A. How will these stack up as far as prototypical ?

I am a fan of Christopher's N&W modeling and thought i remember him comment before that Kohs (and maybe yoder)seems to be the only real prototypical hopper for that era.

I have a few K line and Atlas HL hoppers. One is a bit larger than the other.

Can some one give me some more insight on the comparison of the above brands on which way i should go? (or point me to an earlier discussion since i am new to this 3rail subforum)

Is it to early to tell what MTH is doing with them or have they made these before?

As much as i would love to own(track down) a couple dozen of the Kohs , thats just not in the cards at this time.
