HO Ortner 5-Bay Rapid Discharge Hopper is a detailed HO-scale freight car that faithfully reproduces the five-bay hopper used on North American railroads. Offered as a five-pack with five unique road numbers, it adds realistic variety to yards and mainline trains, and the model arrives fully assembled and ready to run with a removable load for display and interchange realism.

Built on newly tooled tooling with enhanced fidelity, the hopper features separately applied metal grab irons and end cages (no molded railings), a detailed brake line, and an etched stainless-steel brake wheel platform. It rides on machined metal wheels with RP25 contours and body-mounted McHenry scale double-shelf knuckle couplers for authentic operation on standard HO track. Designed for an 18-inch minimum radius, this model is weighted for stable handling and delivers a high level of realism right out of the box.
