Athearn (China) PS-2 2600 Covered Hopper


As pictured above, these models are available with flush or overhanging roof. Also, with round or trough hatches.

Built by Pullman Standard starting in the late 1940s, PS-2 covered hoppers were used to transport granular bulk commodities, such as cement, soda ash, sand and grain. These particular models are based on a 2600 cf prototype built in the 1960s. Many of them remained in service through 2005.
