British Columbia Cement Hoppers

These are the former British Columbia (BCOL) cement hoppers that came to the ARR in the early 2000s. There's a couple of stories of why these cars were not used much and were stored, but for now I'll keep them. The numbers were 14850-14859 and all are present in the Seward Yard coupled to the 701. What's unique is the only paint work the cars had was green patch outs over the former railroad's name and ARR reporting marks were stenciled. 04/19/2021
