My old HS grain hoppers are available again! The models received a minor shape and textures update, the original model hadn't been touched since late 2011. The cars look a bit better now, but still somewhat dated (no decal lettering, among other issues). They are however at last standalone models that don't require the Community Assets DLC any more.
An all new and fictional ATSF repaint has been released too, I found the textures for those hidden in the source folder on my hard disk but couldn't even remember that (let alone when) I had originally painted them.
You can download the cars here: http://golden-age-rails.com/packsrw/hophawk.html
(Edit, May 10: Another update has been added to the RWP files to address the missing couplers bug (see posts below). Please redownload if you installed the cars before today.)
Repainters please note: upgrading to the new model should be fairly simple. There aren't any mapping changes (that I can remember of), so it's likely almost "plug and play". You may need to copy over a few textures from the new model though, not sure about that. In case you get missing textures on your repaint, just copy all textures from one of my updated base models to your repaint's textures folder, without overwriting any files.
Cheers
Michael
