Coal hoppers suitable for Hunter Valley ops

Hi all,

I'm looking for any coal hoppers suitable for steam era operations in the Hunter valley NSW. Preferably the 4 wheel, unbraked versions. I thought there were some on the DLS from ages ago but can't locate them.

Thanks

Phil

Do a search for "private hopper" and you should find some.

One of them is:

kuid 2 63971 15967 1

They are the red wooden 4 wheel non-air hoppers that were used extensively in the Hunter Valley, Newcastle area.

Unfortunately they have solid bases instead of open frames. Also they are not industry inter-active.

I have modified some for my own use but the coal shows outside the hopper body so they are not good enough for uploading as yet. I need to contact the original builder to work something out.

Are these what you're looking for?

Thanks for the replies guys. The ones suggested by Dennis were the the ones I remembered.

There was a loadable QR version which looked close enough but i can't remember the name...
