Reading Company Covered Hoppers
The Reading had a considerable variety of covered hoppers on the roster - everything from home-built cars constructed from open hoppers, to 2-bay and Center-Flow cars built by American Car & Foundry. These cars carried a diverse array of commodities - sugar, limestone, cement, even roofing granules.
