I e-mailed Bowser this A.M. suggesting the RDG HTz hoppers.Another suggestion I submitted to them was introducing their RS3 to their executive line of diesels...any other thoughts?

I'll second that suggestion for the hoppers!! I don't have anything like that on my layout, would be nice to have 2 or 3.

Speaking of RS3... (little off topic - sorry) picked up a Bachmann RS3 with DCC & sound for $118 from Micro Mark. Hoping to do a shell swap with one of my Atlas units.
Thanks,
Barry

While at the Train Show in Cleveland, picked-up 2 Athearn/Bev-bel hoppers, lettered HTv 4 bay.
While I'm not that much of a picky person... just wondering how these compare to the real thing/class.
Thanks,
Barry
