The size is 12" long, 2 3/8 wide and 3 3/8 " tall............ hope this helps. It's the same size as the other hoppers are.. Bob
Also looks great with the boxcar

Excellent!, I actually forgot I bought a 6 pack of those boxcars way back when they came out because I really liked them! But alas no NP engine!
If we cross our fingers real tight, maybe,maybe, sometime, we will see an engine....
CABINET BOB,
I maybe wrong, but I don't think we will see an engine this year. We still need additional buildings, "O" Gauge switches in different radius's and "O" Gauge rubber roadbed. Plus, a lot more freight cars. I do love your new Northern Pacific hopper. It's very sharp.
Very attractive hopper, Bob. Menards is making some very nice freight cars.
This has been brought up a number of times......a Menard's locomotive. I think money is better spent on new structures, maybe switches and maybe....just maybe a new freight car mold.
I vote for 36 foot scale reefer.
The NP covered hopper shows how well Menard's could decorate billboard reefers in many different schemes. I see they sell White Rock....maybe this in the future....

Ok, BNSF will work with that NP stuff, at least for now!
If they make an engine as nice as thier freight cars count me in. I'm still hoping for some 0-36 and/ or 0-42 tubular switches. Btw the hopper looks great.
AMCDAVE, I vote for some 50 footers.
