| These black 3 bay Ortner rapid discharge
hoppers have yellow lettering and run on black Barber® roller
bearing trucks. Built in September 1976, 200 ‘Rapid Discharge’ hoppers
were stenciled with the “Ches-C” logo designed by Franklin Carr
and numbered into the 45000-45299 series. H-61 class 3-bay Ortners
are rated at 100 tons, fall within ‘Plate C’ clearances and can
hold 2,100 cu. ft. level full. The H-61 Ortners often served the
Chessie as unit train limestone haulers in their Virginia Rock Runner
trains. The ‘Rapid Discharge’ design self-clears through the rails
within 30 seconds and is perfect for carrying heavy aggregate. |
