Pennwalt Chemicals 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 dry bulk commodities such as cement, grain, and other heavy granular materials, these versatile freight cars served industrial customers and appeared in mixed freight trains throughout the railroad network.
Bowser reproduces this classic covered hopper in HO scale with a detailed injection-molded body, factory-applied Pennwalt Chemicals decoration, and an open-side configuration. Free-rolling trucks with metal wheels and magnetic knuckle couplers make Pennwalt Chemicals #1003 a practical addition to industrial switching layouts and freight operations.
