Greenville 7,000 Cubic Foot Wood Chip Hopper


Seaboard System  SBD 433366



Wood!


Although wood chips are one of the lightest loads carried by rail, they require one of the biggest cars.

Third in size behind modern auto racks and high-cube boxcars, these giant hoppers were introduced by Greenville Steel Car in the early 1970s.

Tall side walls required a lot of bracing for support, and each panel is embossed for added strength.

Still going strong today, they're especially common on southern lines where wood chips are now preferred over pulpwood as the primary raw material for making paper.

Faithful reproductions of cars in service with several roads, these assembled models come with a heavy diecast underframe, prototypical interior bracing, door latch details, RP-25 metal wheels and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers.

  • Heavy diecast underframe
  • Prototypical interior bracing
  • Door latch details
  • RP-25 metal wheels
  • Proto MAX™ metal knuckle couplers
