HIAs are a common sight across the network and deserve a place on any modern era layout, particularly in these realistic graffitied conditions. Models are available in Freightliner green and white colour schemes and we do also have some standard 'un-graffitied' models available to purchase too!
This new batch of 'vandalised' models includes 6 different wagons in both green and white liveries - featuring 12 unique graffiti artworks designed by Dapol's artists.

Prototype Information
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 Swidnica in Poland of which 95 operated in the Heavy Haul green livery and 27 in the white. 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.
