Atlas also makes a ACF Center Flow PressureAide covered hopper model. The model comes with a Apex pattern metal walkway. But many of the prototypes we have seen have a Gypsum diamond pattern walkway on them. We have a replacement walkway kit available for this model with the Gypsum pattern. Replacement brass walkway supports and matching coupler crossover platforms are also supplied in the kit. Although this car doesn't match the model, we do have series of detail photos of a PressureAide car posted here on our web site. Maybe they will come in handy for your detailing project.

Front Range ACF cars

If you have any of the 2 or 3 bay ACF hoppers once produced by Front Range, (later by McKean and Hubert) we have a couple kits available to fit those models. These kits include a four piece Apex walkway, brass supports and couple platforms. The 2 bay kit can be used on the InterMountain 2980 cf car.

SALE - We have discovered that we have an abundance of the #105 3 bay walkway kits and we need to reduce those. The online price of these kits are reduced to $6.00 each. And, if you are waiting for the #102 kits to come back (at $7.50 each) ( a limited supply available) , you might consider using the #105 kit. With the way these kits are constructed, a modeler could easily modify the #105 parts to fit a 2 bay car. Give it some thought.

This kit consists of walkways only and utilizes the support risers already molded on the roof of the Wm. K. Walthers car. Please note that these roofwalks fit the original version of the Walthers cement hoppers. There are four parts to this roofwalk kit. If you have one of the newer Walthers Trinity 100 ton 2 bay Cememt Hoppers with the one piece walkway, we have a walkway kit for that model also. You will find that kit in the Trinity car section farther down on this page.

The Athearn 54 ft PS, Walthers PS2CD and Proto2000s 4427 covered hopper walkway kits include brass walkway supports and coupler/brake platforms. Notice that kits 087 and 088 fit either the Wm. K Walthers low hip or Proto 2000's high side model. If you are going to be adding more than one or two of our walkway kits to the 4427cf cars, one of our #10889 Phos Bronze drill templates will greatly aid you in the drilling of the support holes. A paper drill template is supplied with each walkway kit, but the metal template speeds up the process and adds accuracy.

Not all PS2 4427 covered hoppers have high mounted brake wheels. Some of them (OK a few) have low mounted brake wheels. At least two, Milwaukee and CNW second photo had the low mounted brake wheels with end posts pointing in toward the car. These two kits are designed to detail the Wm. K Walthers low side car. The kits can be used on the ExactRail model, but factoring in the costs of the two cars and the results of the conversion, The WKW car is the better choice in our opinion. Our kits differ in their configuration. The 10875 kit will only detail one car. But this kit includes a brass drill template. There are around 100 holes to drill in the car to add all the details in this kit. This drill template will firmly hold the plastic corner posts and the end and side frames in place. It is important to keep everything straight and square while drilling for this conversion. The 10876 kit has enough parts to build two cars but the drill template is paper. If you are comfortable with the paper template (think about it) then this kit might be for you. Or, start with the single car kit and then do additional cars with the two car kit. If you are doing the CNW car, you will want to get our #10878 Roofwalk kit. And our #10889 stainless walkway drill template will also work on these cars. Here is a batch of photos showing preproduction test parts applied to both manufacturers models. Oh yeah, these kits include replacement end posts, Stirrup steps, Coupler crossover platforms, Rope pull loops, brass wire for grab irons and the NBWs. I would like to point out that there are some TLDX cars that have low mounted brake wheels. But they have end posts that point out. If I were going to build one of those cars, I would use the ExactRail undecorated kit and use the PS2 4740 end frames available from Tangent Scale Models. Here are some links showing a few TLDX cars. Please take note of the roofwalks. Yea, you will want to use our #10878 Roofwalk. TLDX 6134 TLDX 6211 TLDX 6508 TLDX 6715

Additional model and prototype information can be found on our customer photos page There you can find a CNW model by Jeff Eggert and a 2 Bay PRR can built by Tom Haag. There are also some prototype photos of some CNW cars that show these low brake wheel cars.
