The prototypes were built by Billmeyer and Smalls for the East Broad Top in the mid 1870s with a capacity of 11 tons. The model is kitbashed from a Delton/Aristocraft Classics wood hopper. A full account of the project can be found here: http://www.mylargescale.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=43093 Finished photos are on page 2. Later, K
