Reading & Northern Road #RBMN 7286
100 Ton 3-Bay Rib-side Hopper
Part #MTL-108080 N Scale Supply Price:
New Release Date: January 2002

This 100-ton 3-bay open hopper with rib sides was built in January 1976. It is part of a 360-car fleet originally owned by CSX. These cars were purchased by Reading & Northern when it became clear that Norfolk Southern (RBMN’s Class 1 connection) couldn’t meet their needs with NS’s own rolling stock. RBMN maintained the black paint scheme and the CSX ‘Ease-UP’ emblem. They added their web site and a colored end panel—in this case blue but some in red. The road is also called the Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern, hence the RBMN. Watch for RBMN coal car with red end panel next month.
