Please forgive me my ignorance but I never before heard or saw anything about the HT-1 or 2 so I wonder if these were earlier
versions of the HT-5 series, documented in Mike Spoor’'s CB&Q Color Guide to Freight and Passenger Equipment. And if so,
were there dimensional differences?  Are there any eqpmt diagrams available of these types?

190854 was a class HT-2 twin hopper that was almost an exact copy of class HT-1 hopper car which in turn were almost copies of the USRA cars with the exception of the hand brakes. So with a little work on the hand brake, you can come pretty close. You should note that 190854 got Bettendorf trucks instead of Andrews when rebuilt.

The only 55-ton aluminum CB&Q hopper I know of was 190854, a rebuild of one of their 55-ton hoppers with the side sheets in two parts.  This was not a USRA hopper.

Greetings!

Following is a link to Accurail models new products for January:

Scrolling down the page you will see they are offering a 55-Ton USRA ALUMINUM hopper car.

My question is did the 'Q have any of these cars in the period just prior to the merger? I'm familiar with the larger capacity 'silver sides' hoppers of that time but did they even make a 55T version in aluminum? And more importantly to my modeling, if so did the CB&Q have any of them as this model suggests?

Thanks in advance for any info on these cars.
