Walthers Mainline 49227 HO Scale ACF 5250 4-Bay Centerflow Covered Hopper, Burlington Northern #460039

American Car & Foundry's Center Flow® design transformed covered hopper traffic in the 1960s, and the 4-bay 5250 cu ft version became a North American standard for plastic pellets and dry chemicals. Railroads rostered their own fleets alongside the ACFX lease cars — including Burlington Northern, whose Cascade Green cars worked grain and chemical traffic across the northern tier. This Walthers Mainline model represents BN #460039.

Walthers Mainline freight cars offer excellent value with correct proportions, appropriate detail, and Proto MAX™ metal knuckle couplers — ready to work your HO scale railroad.
