Here is a Special Full Throttle "Collector Pack #19" hopper release for August 2010! The Waddell Coal Co. came into being in the late 1800's when their breaker was built in Winton, near Scranton, located in Pennsylvania's northern anthracite coal region. Originally serviced by the New York, Ontario and Western Railway, which operated in Northern NJ, Upstate NY, and Northeastern PA, improvements were made in the early 1900's and coal from the local mines was washed, sorted, and distributed by the O&W, as was milk and dairy products, mainly to the New York City metropolitan area. With the advent of new roads, trucking, and the decline of home-heating coal, the O&W and hence the Waddell Breaker fell into disrepair. By the late 1930's while the O&W neared bankruptcy, the Waddell Coal Co. continued to clean and distribute coal to rural areas along the rail line. In the early 1950's the Company bought five of the O&W's small ribbed twin-bay hoppers, and had the shops paint them in a striking orange, black and white scheme, to advertise and distribute their coal to local merchants. Although fires destroyed parts of the Waddell Breaker complex over the next twenty years, coal continued to be processed there through the 1980's! Demolished in 2003, a housing development is now planned for the site. Full Throttle brings the Z Scale community prototype models of this memorable "billboard" hopper complete with coal loads by Hay Bros. Garage.
