This PS-2 hopper with Bettendorf trucks was built in August of 1957 in a series of 400 cars. The Pullman-Standard all-welded steel, 2,003 cubic-foot two bay covered hopper would become one of the most popular cars of its type with railroads and private industry. It was designed to haul everything from powdered chemicals, to grains, to construction materials such as sand or cement. Versatile and durable, this car continued in revenue service into the early 2000’s, and was sometimes found later in MOW service.

Chessie® 4-pack

Pre-ordered in June 2023

Chessie System can trace its origins back to the early 1960s when a successful Chesapeake and Ohio Railway gained controlling stock in the financially struggling Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. Although the two lines remained separate corporations, they operated in close affiliation through the decade and by the late 60s, C&O and B&O jointly acquired the smaller Western Maryland Railway. Following this consolidation, the Chessie System was created in 1973 as a holding company that retained ownership over all three railways and marketed them together with a vivid new paint scheme. A further series of mergers and acquisitions in the 1980s brought an end to the Chessie System as its constituent rail lines were absorbed into CSX Transportation.
