H-100-5 Hopper Cars
A roster of the H-100-5 class hopper cars is provided as follows:
SP 491000-491059 SSW 79000-79039
These cars were built by AC&F in 1962. All were of 3960 ft3 capacity and featured aluminum bodies with yellow lettering, (5) 30" round roof hatches and (6) gravity-pneumatic unloading hatches. The outlets were two per internal compartment so these are actually 3-bay covered hoppers. Anyone having an in-service photo of one of these cars please let me know as they were rather camera shy.
