Air piping on hoppers

[NW Mailing List]

Hi Kurt,
   
  What class hopper is this?  From the tapered angles under the slope sheets, it looks like it might be a Bowser H-11.  If it is, the train air line ran down the center sill, rather than on the outside.  Andrew Dow's book Norfolk And Western Coal Cars has many good shots of all H-11 class hoppers, and is an excellent reference for modeling hoppers.

  Here is a photo of a model with the air piping on a hopper. Is this correct for N&W hoppers?
