I have nothing to confirm it, but they were likely stenciled FLOUR LOADING ONLY.  Earlier, the the days when flour was shipped in boxcars, there was a rather extensive stencil used on these "clean" boxcars that listed commodities that were not to be carried in them for fear of contamination, but this stenciling disappeared with the advent of covered hoppers.

I'd like to ask one further question about the group of HC-1As: does anyone know what additional stenciling might have been applied to the cars to indicate they were equipped for flour loading?  Any photos available?

Hol,
Thanks so much!  That gives me four cars to model that I know were in town at one time or another.

They were equipped gradually over the period 1953-57 and thereafter were so equipped.

In BB#20 Hol Wagner indicates that HC-1A hoppers #181046-181049 were equipped for flour loading 1953-57.
I'm looking for clarification on whether the equipping of these cars took place car by car over that four year span, or whether they were all so-equipped in 1953 and whatever modifications this involved were then all removed in 1957.
Reason for asking is that I know some (maybe all) of these cars served the General Mills plant in Keokuk, but since I'm modeling the early 1960s, I'd make plans to use some other cars if these four cars weren't being used for flour any more.
