Dapol have announced a new batch of their ever-popular HIA limestone hopper wagons in OO Gauge!


This new run includes six variations in both Freightliner 'Heavy Haul' green and white liveries with fresh running numbers. All of these models replicate early built prototype hoppers with accurate tooling variations.


These beautifully detailed wagons always tend to sell through very fast so pre-order yours now to avoid disappointment! We expect the new run to arrive during Q4 2025.

The HIA limestone hopper was designed for the haulage of limestone, stone and sand and was introduced in 2005 for exclusive operation by Freightliner Heavy Haul Limited. 122 HIA limestone hoppers were manufactured by Wagony Swidinica in Poland. The HIA limestone hopper was 14 metres long with a maximum carrying capacity of 90 tonnes. The wagons worked all over England, typically transporting limestone from Derbyshire (Dowlow) to Yorkshire, Kent, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk and Lancashire.
