Hello Lee,
this February a local club, the Appalachian, set up a great layout at the show I attended.
I'll never forget it... the consist consisted , I couldn't resist, at least 30 loads of coal. The admin on duty said the cars were Weaver. I really do not know the model # of the coal hoppers but they Road the track great, followed well with the couplers, and looked great as well. I believe they were two hoppers.
Since you displayed one, you have any experience you could share with us on the Weaver coal hopper cars??? I enjoy all of your comments...
the major reason I'll not forget the show, wind that day was fierce. White caps on the Kanawah River. When I returned home a huge 75 foot pine just missed my train room and laid out our board fence....
