Historic Rails hopper cars

I saw some O gauge hopper car two packs in Historic Rails newest catalog, are these Williams by Bachmann? One or both hopper cars have a scale brakeman riding the hopper car at one end of it. There are at least two roadnames for these sets, one is Reading Lines.
Some of the O gauge engines in Historic Rails claim to come with True Blast 2 horns, so I know they are Williams.

Nice looking catalog, but in the past; 

Some have experienced long back orders and cancelled orders. 

If your item is actually in stock, that's a different story.

IIRC, an item number's prefix is the code for its manufacturer.

Your TB2 item should have the prefix for (old) Williams, WBB, or possibly Bachmann's entire line.

If  your hopper's prefix matches, well, there you go. 

Hope this helps.
If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.

Hey Joe,

Thanks for the ebay tip!! With shipping I saved about $22.00, compared to Historic Rails catalog. Yes they are RMT hoppers I was looking for.
