Below is a cut & paste from the Atlas Model RR Forum. I have never heard of this before and was wondering if the Burlington did anything like this. Thanks in advance. -- "Paul (Kossart) - The CB&Q Guy" Proto-Lancing the CB&Q "Illiniwek River-Subdivision-Branch Line" in the 1960's. ........ Haven't seen it in a while but in the early 70's, several roads (IC, N&W and probably some other midwest grain belt carriers) used to haul grain (corn and soybeans) in cleaned coal hoppers covered with a piece of black plastic and/or tarps during the peak harvest season when box cars were running in short supply and covered hoppers were still relatively few for the needs.
