Starting in the early 2000s, the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railway began repainting their former Santa Fe SD75Ms in the new Heritage II scheme. The locomotives had long, productive lives on the railroad in all types of mainline service, from unit coal trains to intermodal service out west, and have only recently begun to be retired. Some units have been refurbished and painted in the new “H4” scheme.

Pre-order BNSF H2 and H4 locomotives through your Athearn dealer by Monday, August 31st.

The order deadline for our all-new HO scale Trinity 6221 and 6241 plastic pellet hopper is coming August 17, 2026!

Beginning in 1997, Trinity began to build a larger “high cube” 6,221 cu. ft design. It carries forward a signature feature all the way back from the earliest 1980s 5,851 cars: a box-like frame around the entire carbody, with lip at each end above the coupler. To give a sense of how quickly high-cube 6,200 cu. ft. cars took over the market, the August 1999 edition of Freight Car Journal shows nearly 20,000 new cars built by all builders in the late 1990’s alone.

In the last 25 years, that number has only continued to grow. Trinity has slightly tweaked its design into a 6,241 cu. ft. model, which we will also offer. This car is still in production today! Plastic pellet cars are an excellent way to fill out a mixed freight or add an industry to a layout. In our research, we found real examples of customers with 1-car spots with 1 single Trinity 6,241 on the siding – an industry you can squeeze into any layout!

Reserve through dealers or our website for 2027 delivery!
