Kadee HO Scale Coal Load - Fits 2-Bay Hoppers 32.5' Scale Length Pack Of 6

About This Product

Model railroaders, these Kadee coal loads are exactly what your HO scale layout needs for that authentic mining or industrial scene! Designed specifically for 2-bay hoppers, these loads fit perfectly in most popular brands including Atlas, Athearn, MDC, and Bowser models. The 32.5 scale foot length is accurate for prototype coal hoppers, giving your layout that realistic look that serious modelers appreciate. Each pack comes with 6 loads, which is perfect for creating a consist of loaded coal cars or having spares for different scenes. The coal material looks convincingly real with proper texture and coloring - not that shiny plastic look that cheaper products sometimes have. What's really handy is that they can be easily modified to fit other open hopper types if you're working with non-standard equipment. Installation is straightforward - just place them in your hopper cars and they stay put during operation but can be removed if you want to show empty cars. The scale accuracy is typical Kadee quality - everything is proportioned correctly and the details are sharp. Whether you're modeling a modern unit train or a classic early-to-mid 20th century coal operation, these loads add that essential detail that brings your layout to life. They're compatible with most coupler systems and won't interfere with truck movement or coupling operations. The quality is exactly what you'd expect from Kadee - precise, durable, and designed by people who actually understand model railroading. They make such a difference in making your coal trains look authentic rather than just empty hoppers rolling around. Definitely a must-have detail item if you're serious about creating realistic freight operations on your HO scale layout!
