🚆 Realistic Freight-Car Design

Developed by American Car & Foundry in the mid-1960s, the 56-foot, four-bay ACF Center-Flow Hopper was designed to transport granular materials such as plastic pellets and animal feed. Its four underside discharge bays helped facilitate efficient unloading, making this style of hopper a familiar sight in freight service.
