Description: This was the last paint scheme applied by Seaboard Air Line to their 3 bay offset side hoppers prior to their 1967 merger with Atlantic Coast Line. The ACI tags and con-stencils were in place by 1974. SAL and successor Seaboard Coast Line used their hoppers primarily for sand, gravel and industrial minerals so we are including "mineral" loads for the 6 road numbers in this release. 70 ton 3-Bay Offset Side Hoppers first appeared in the late '20s and by the late '30s had become an AAR standard design with cars delivered from a number of builders in large quantities. The last of these cars were delivered in the late-'60s and many remained in service through the '80s. These ready-to-run models feature: diecast slope sheet-hopper bay-center sill assembly; injection molded plastic sides, ends, and hopper doors; fully molded brake tank, valve and air lines; slope sheet braces; separately molded vertical brake rod and lever assembly; body mounted brake hose detail; "coal" load except as noted; body mounted magnetically operating couplers; close coupling; friction bearing or roller bearing trucks as appropriate for each road name. All road names are produced in multiple road numbers. Note: Pictures may be of another Road Number.
