This Accurail HO scale kit builds into a highly detailed AAR 70-Ton Offset-Side 3-Bay Hopper decorated for the Milwaukee Road as car #341029. A workhorse of the steam-to-diesel transition era, the AAR offset-side triple hopper was built by the tens of thousands from the late 1930s into the 1960s — making this car a near-universal fit for almost any layout running coal, gravel, or aggregate service.
