N Scale: Johnstown America AutoFlood II Hoppers

ExactRail is proud to release for the first time in N scale, the Johnstown America AutoFlood II Hopper in 8 paint schemes!

As 100-ton steel hoppers approached retirement in the 1980 and 1990's, railroads requested that car builders to lighten cars to improve tare weight and fuel economy. Johnstown America answered this call by producing the aluminum AutoFlood II coal hopper. Johnstown America provided an aerodynamic design with a lower center of gravity and the ability to be bottom or rotory unloaded. The AutoFlood II also included the all-new MegaFlo™ automatic discharge system. The result is a sleek, smooth-sided hopper with extreme, contemporary presence.

Included with each AutoFlood model is an accurate coal load. Great care was taken to design the load shape to sit offset within the body of the hopper. Like the prototype, many coal flood loads start with a more gentle slope and end with a steeper, abrupt angle.

The N Scale Johnstown America AutoFlood II Hopper will be a classy addition to your late 1990's to modern day layout.
