What car for cracking catalysts
Author: mkerner

Was wondering what kind of covered hopper should I be using to deliver cracking catalysts to my refinery. I know in the way back period Walthers had a kit for a big PD covered hopper and IIRC some of these where painted WR Grace cracking catalysts.

If I remember correctly the Grace cars were PD5000 cars.

The Atlas ACF Pressureiade (5000cuft) will also work.  Grace & Engelhard leased those though not sure if Atlas has done those schemes yet.  Also if you can find it, the Overland Brass NA/PD 4000 will also work, Engelhard also leased those.

The Walthers Trinity PD car would probaby work too if you are late 1980's or later.
