A pair of FARM FEED Cylindricals from two of the largest producers in the USA!  The models are for WAYNE FEEDS and PURINA CHOWS!  I've released these hoppers once before as separate offerings, but here's the pair with new reporting numbers, a Collector 2-pk.! There is a limited quantity.

A proponent of feed supplements for animal husbandry, Dale Wilmore McMillen founded Wayne Feeds and Central Soya producing a concentrate of soy protein, vitamins and minerals lacking in regular feed.  Wayne Feeds merged with American Milling Co., a soybean crushing mill, in 1929 to form 

Allied Mills.

In 1894, William H. Danforth began producing feed for various farm animals under the name Purina Mills. The predominant brand for each animal was generally referred to as "Chow"; hence there was "Purina" Horse, Dog, Cat, Rabbit, Pig and even Monkey "Chow". in 1902, he merged with university professor Webster Edgerly, a producer of breakfast cereals, to form the "Ralston Purina Co.". In 1998

 it was purchased by Koch Industries and in 2001 by Land O'Lakes.

These models have been equipped with our Full Throttle  couplers, trucks and metal wheelsets.  The 2-pk.carries two new unique Reporting Numbers!
