You confirm what I thought. When looking at JM Huber car's built date, the oldest in service were dating back to the mid-80s. As a kid in the 80s growing near a track serving a paper mill, I never saw tank cars until the early 90s, when JM Huber & Omya cars appeared.
Bagged clay in boxcars... I'm always amazed how every bulk commodities ended up bagged in boxcars in the old days.
