Flat Ends
1850 Series Offset Twin Hopper with Flat Ends - This is, to a first,
and even a second approximation, the same as the Athearn twin offset hopper, no. 5407.
(There are some differences in the prototype chosen, mainly shown by the
spacing of the "gussets" along the top. These were actually the exposed
vertical ribs, and Athearn chose the more common spacing.)
