Ga-141 Class Hopper Cars
A roster of the Ga-141 class hopper cars is provided as follows:
AT&SF 182856-182999
These 70 ton, 3-bay covered hopper cars were apparently reconfigured from open hoppers. More research is needed into these cars. The photo I have shows an original build date of 2/1958 which suggests that AT&SF 182926 was originally a Ga-109 class car, but there were several classes of very similar if not identical cars, so there is no telling if other classes were fodder for the conversions. The 10/1968 ORER shows them as HTR type cars assigned to potash loading. They featured 2773 ft3 capacity.
