Going through tons of paper work in preparation for a big donation, I've
found a few things that I'll post. This is when Conrail had hundreds of old
cement hoppers converted into ballast cars, that they needed to store
somewhere. The old L&HR between Hudson Jct and Maybrook took 178 of them. The
other locations are as marked. I think?? this is 1999. I was always
looking for non PC cars ( EL Cars ) and thus had a scribbled cheat sheet
attached. Many short lines did acquire many of these cars. With their retro
fitted drop shoots they were a good deal, I think.
