I have seen pics of them a few times they were box cars that could be converted to a hopper, what ever happened to them.

Also there are a few pics of all Aluminum Covered Hoppers around, where did they go??

They had to have a power car with them.. The idea was.. for instance: Grain was bulk loaded into them. Flour was shipped back in them... The idea was just not practical.

The power car gave power to the motors that shake the floor to ease in unloading.
