It was introduced in 1955, only a year after the initial introduction of the quad hopper. Although it was unavailable between 1958 and 1962, it was re-introduced in 1963 and ran through the end of postwar production in 1969.The 6436 hopper has three distinct production runs. Each production run created a slightly different variation. To help identify each, Lionel assigned a different suffix.FeaturesStandard features include: dual operating couplers on bar-end trucks up to 1958 and AAR trucks thereafter, a single brakewheel and for most 6436 hopper, a spreader bar. The earlier versions are known to have come with and without spreader bar holes on the sides of the hopper.
