This is a three bay Ortner rapid discharge hopper painted green with white and black logo and white lettering. It was built in January 1974, serviced in June 1998, and runs on Barber Roller Bearing trucks. The Algoma Central Railway was initially owned by Francis H. Clergue, who required a railway to haul resources from the interior of the Algoma District to Clergue’s industries in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada; The Algoma Central Railway was chartered on August 11, 1899. The railway’s dominion and provincial charters gave it authority to build north from Sault Ste. Marie to a junction with the Canadian Pacific Railway’s main line, as well as a branch line to Michipicoten Harbour on Lake Superior.
