[CBQ] Grain-Hauling Boxcars

["'kerhart@frontier.com' kerhart@frontier.com [CBQ]" <CBQ@yahoogroups.com>]

Before the use of covered hoppers to haul grain, the CB&Q and other railroads used boxcars.  I want to modify a couple of my S scale boxcars for this purpose. Can someone tell me what was used inside the sliding doors to hold the grain in?  How were the boxcars emptied?  Any details or references would be most helpful.  Thank you.
