- Southern Pacific (SP)

Painted in the gray “Houston repaint” scheme from the later 1970's! These cars - available in three road numbers - feature the distinctive large “Southern Pacific” centered on the car in black, as well as the bright yellow box with legible “Interior Coated for Edible or Chemical Commodity” lettering. Southern Pacific cars still operate on UP rails, and SP ordered very similar 3920cc hoppers from Pullman-Standard that are virtually identical to the PS-2CD 4000.
