Hello Leo and All -

I have a photo of a train from Galesburg at West Quincy, MO, with CB&Q 232060 right behind the units.
Shows a lt.wt. "HV 4-57" and it has a patch stencilled "For gasoline only".    PAW

How did the Receivers of the syrup unload it from these non insulated, non heater coiled cars ? Corn syrup and molasses get very thick and need to be steamed to be unloaded.

Also at 25,000 gallon capacity wouldn't these cars exceed gross weight on rail when loaded due to heavy commodity weight ?

Even today the largest corn syrup cars are 19,000 gallon . I do recall spotting GW sugar owned insulated and coiled tanks at the sugar plant in Congress Park,IL.

The 130000 series cars were initially used for corn syrup and molasses in relation to servicing sugar beet factories in Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming and Montana.  They were regulars in the consist of the "Buckwheat" local that ran north out of Denver.  In the early 1970s after the collapse of rail-oriented Sugar beet traffic, the BN transferred the cars to fuel and lubricating oil service.  Check out BB #32 for more details of the sugar beet operations.  The attached photos show both series under discussion in diesel fuel service at Hastings Nebraska in the early 1980s.
