Micro-Trains Accurail weathered covered hoppers
#1
Micro-Trains and Accurail have come out with a series of weathered covered hoppers.  The sides are nicely done but you will need to do some additional weathering on the car ends and underside to blend the weathering in.  I also added metal wheel sets and Kadee couplers.
On the Southern car I painted out the yellow conspicuity striping and added some more weathering to roof hatches , car ends and the underside.  The CSXT car had some additional weathering to the side sills, roof, car ends and underside to blend in. 
If your interested check out the website at https://micro-trains.com>product .

Love them! I could easily see them rolling through the gorge on my layout!
