CPRAIL 4-BAY HOPPER CAR#365282

CANADIAN PACIFIC RAIL W/COAL LOAD

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:

Open hopper cars are used for commodities such as coal, which can suffer exposure with less detrimental effect. Hopper cars have been used by railways worldwide whenever automated cargo handling has been desired. This type of car is distinguished from a gondola car in that it has opening doors on the underside or on the sides to discharge its cargo.
