This 50’ airslide hopper is grey with black lettering and runs on 100-Ton Barber Roller Bearing trucks. This hopper was leased to the Western Maryland for flour and sugar service in the Baltimore, MD area. Equipped with a special epoxy lining, these cars were specifically designed for use with fine-grained commodities, like powdered sugar, that could settle en-route making unloading difficult.
