Western Railroad Discussion > H-EVELVJ and a silver 2 bayDate: 08/05/22 11:22 H-EVELVJ and a silver 2 bay Author: BrianA Here is BNSF H-EVELVJ with units 7587/4316/282 (ES44DC/C44-9W/SD75I) at the south end of Kent, WA on the Seattle to Portland, OR ex-NP main line.
Back in the train were a few cars I thought were interesting. A doublestack riding a CP flatcar and this silver 2 bay covered hopper. Does anyone have any information on OFOX 60856? Curious to know what the number series is of these cars which appaers to be reletter/renumbered from something else. Also curious to know when the covered hopper was built. Thanks!

I seem to recall seeing Procor sodium chlorate hoppers that looked like that.
