Bluford Shops N 74064 3-Bay Offset Side Hopper Chicago & North Western 'CGW' CGW #6010

Railroad Specific Information:

Chicago & North Western inherited this group of hoppers with their 1968 acquisition of Chicago Great Western. By the mid-70s they were receiving this paint scheme with the large 'Employee Owned' version of the C&NW ball and bar logo and re-equipped with roller bearing trucks. The CGW reporting marks were retained. This was not unusual because changing a car’s number could require amending equipment trusts and/or lease agreements

Prototype Information:

70 ton 3-Bay Offset Side Hoppers first appeared in the late '20s and by the late '30s had become an AAR standard design with cars delivered from a number of builders in large quantities. The last of these cars were delivered in the late-'60s and many remained in service through the '80s.

These ready-to-run models feature:

  • Diecast slope sheet-hopper bay-center sill assembly
  • Injection molded plastic sides, ends, and hopper doors
  • Fully molded brake tank, valve and air lines
  • Slope sheet braces
  • Separately molded vertical brake rod and lever assembly
  • Body mounted brake hose detail
  • 'Coal' load except as noted
  • Body mounted magnetically operating couplers; close coupling;
  • Friction bearing or roller bearing trucks as appropriate for each road name
  • All road names are produced in multiple road numbers.
