This PS-2
100 ton covered hopper is painted gray with black Frisco herald
and lettering. It was built in 1971, serviced in May 1976, and
runs on Barber Roller Bearing trucks. This group of 200 hoppers
came from Pullman- Standard in March 1971, adding to the already
800-strong group purchased and leased in 1967. All received
gravity outlets of either Wine or Miner types, except for a
small group of 23 that were equipped with gravitypneumatic outlets.
The 1971s came with Morton and Ellcon equipment.
