Description

Railroad Short Name: ATSF, SF

Manufactured by Pullman Standard from 1972 through the 1990’s at least, these 4750 Cu. Ft. Hoppers were considered the ‘Standard of the Industry’ at the time. It is one of the most common freight cars in the rail scene since the late ’70’s. Features unique to this car include the 18 vertical posts on the car side (19 panel side) and compound curve roof (called by some a clerestory roof).

The 4,740 and 4,750 designs are often mistaken for each other, although the 4,750 has two more panels.
