These 3-bay, 100-ton covered hopper cars were built by Pullman Standard as above. They featured 3920 ft3 capacity.

They were rather unusual on the SP among the vastly more numerous AC&F Center Flow design cars. Many of these cars were rebuilt as H-100-9R's.

I am still trying to determine if there is any significance to the single car of Lot 8895, SP 493400.
