They use to use them for coal down in the Portland Termanal back in the old days to Customers on the Wharf before they went to oil They Also used them on the BAR "Bangor and Aroostook" Now CMQ "Cental Maine and Qubec" on the Searsport Branch hauling Coal from the Searsport Termanal to Hermon where they would get sorted out and go to where they going. Everything got switched over to Oil now. Now they are used for MOW. No need to say sorry for asking questions.

I'm finally going to request/suggest and or get your interest in painting a few unusual hoppers, Buzz. Please?

I have a batch of detailed photos in larger size I can send to you if that helps.

Thank you

Thank you.
Another one. This one had a little nostalgia to it. My Grandfather spent a good deal of his life as a salesman for Peabody Coal.
