One thing on Hoppers, can you name the type of product and industry for each of these types of hoppers I have:
1. ACF Centerflow with values at the bottom and small circular hatches at the top.
2. ACF Centreflow with valves at the bottom and long oval hatches at the top.
3. Trinity hopper with sliding gates at the bottom and long oval haches on top.
4. PS covered hopper, ribbed side with gates at the bottom and short oval hatches on top???.

Callum;

Without seeing actual photos of the cars you mention I'll just give you a general commodity type for the cars you describe.
1. Plastic Pellets and some types of dry chemicals
2. Could also be used for Plastic Pellets and dry chemicals. Some types of fertilizers. Sounds like one of the Athearn ACF CenterFlow versions that they were trying to use as grain handling cars by simply changing the roof hatches
3. Grain, Feed, Fertilizer. The new 4 bay Trinity and similar covered hoppers are designed only to handle feed (Distillers Dried Grain) from ethanol plants around the country. Cubic capacity is too much of loading these cars with grain.
4. Grain, Feed, Fertilizer. Sounds like the PS versions before they went to the full length trough hatches

Hope this helps
