Description: We try to be Friendly to our international customers. Up until 1905, each of the main builders had their own proprietary design (except for AC&F which apparently abandoned its LS&MS design in favor of building PSC and SSC clones), but changes were on the way. In 1904, Cambria and AC&F built an 8-panel design with a combination of pressed and standard shapes (this eventually became the PRR Gv). A year later, B&O adopted a similar 8-panel car (class N-10), and PRR Lines West took delivery of a 6-panel version of the Gv (known as the GLa) from the “Big Four” builders. Also in 1905, another 6-panel design was adopted by the builders and built in massive numbers for the next two decades. This “early standard” design proved to be extremely popular. The old PSC designs and the Vandy hoppers were largely abandoned at this point, but variants of the Standard Steel car were adopted by a few roads (Reading and DL&W, for example) and built in fair numbers into the Teens. There was a blizzard of other designs, but most of these were one-offs or peculiar to one or two roads. Most steel hoppers followed what quickly became the standard layout of two sawtooth hoppers and outside bracing for the sides. Thanks To David Thompson It remained the unofficial standard until the 2-bay hopper design with offset sides that had been first proposed in the 1920s appeared 1934 to replace it. The AAR adopted it as a standard design the following year. The offset design permitted greater interior capacity than a rib side car with the same outside dimensions. **Reference Bluford shops To see all our eBay listings, visit: Ikas Train Store Note #1: I will combine shipping for multiple items.
