Hoppers have been around since the early days of railroading. Increasing in size over time, these cars have continued to be a very important part of railroading. These 50' 100 Ton 3 Bay Eastern Hoppers were developed in the 1960's and 1970's by a number of builders such as N&W and Bethlehem Steel to address the needs of eastern railroads. Tens of thousands were built and many are still in use today across the United States.
