📋 About This Mod
This 5 Bay hopper car is based off of a experimental Hopper that the Pennsylvania Railroad built. They only ever built 1 of them and it was around for about a year before it was involved in a derailment and scrapped.
I made 3 Derail Valley Themed skins for this hopper car. This car only accepts and will spawn for Iron Ore and Coal loads.
This mod now works in the simulator update.
Note if you would like to re-skin any of my content and I haven't made a reskin kit for the car you want to skin yet. Please feel free to contact me and I'll whip up a PSD for you to start your skin. Or bump making a reskin kit up higher on my to-do list.
Adds an H24 Hopper car with 3 skins to Derail Valley, now compatible with the simulator update. A compact cosmetic mod with 90 endorsements and 2,641 downloads, last updated November 2025.
