Its prototype was built largely in the 1970s and 70s, just before the destinations for these cars-mainly utility power plants and harbor side shipping facilities-began switching to rotary unloading. While many of these cars survive in service today, newer coal cars are technically not hoppers at all. With trough-like bottoms and no hopper doors, they're actually high-sided gondolas designed solely for rotary unloading. Unlike equipment that carried a variety of loads, like boxcars, flatcars, and gondolas, the "sawtooth" style coal hopper was designed in the late 1800s specifically for one purpose: transporting coal from mines to customers. Its capacity matched the volume of coal that a pair of typical freight trucks could carry. And its slope sheets-the angled floors at either end of the car-were set at precisely the angle at which coal would flow easily formats bottom doors. (Covered grain hoppers, for example, require much steeper slope sheets.) The earliest steel hoppers were generally 2-bay, 50-ton cars. As truck capacities increased, the 3- and 4-bay 70 ton car became common. These larger cars generally delivered softer, dirtier burning bituminous coal to industrial clients and the railroads themselves. A revision of axle ratings by the Association of American Railroads (AAR) in 1963 paved the way for 100-ton cars like this model, the final evolution of more than seven decades of coal hopper design.
