Delaware, Lackawanna & Western 70-Ton Covered Hopper

Pullman-Standard 70-ton two-bay covered hoppers were introduced during the mid-1950s and remained in service across North American railroads for decades. Designed to transport bulk commodities such as cement, grain, and other heavy granular materials, these versatile freight cars served industrial customers and appeared in freight trains throughout the railroad network.

The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, commonly known as the Lackawanna, operated throughout the northeastern United States, connecting industrial centers in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York. Covered hoppers like #18655 are excellent additions to layouts recreating the railroad's freight operations during its later years.

Bowser recreates this classic covered hopper in HO scale with a detailed injection-molded body, accurate DL&W decoration, and an open-side configuration. Free-rolling trucks with metal wheels and magnetic knuckle couplers make this model suitable for both display and regular layout operations.
