ATSF Covered Hoppers, Or a lack thereof

Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

Hold the torches and pitchforks, I promise I’ll stop starting new threads! Even I believe I’m beginning to look like…nevermind.

I’ve done my homework, and it looks as if ATSF never had any FMC hoppers similar to the MDC/Roundhouse models.

Can I get a confirmation of the above statement over here?

I had planned on weathering this from a photo, but it looks as if I’ll have to freelance it.

Thanks,
Matt

Thank you Mr. Archer and Rick. Further confirmation of MDC’s stupidity.
