CB&Q Class HT-13 160389
Title:  CB&Q Class HT-13 160389
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad Class HT-13 160389 at Cicero, Illinois on an unknown day in October 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The railroad purchased another 200 quad hoppers from Bethlehem Steel. These were nearly identical to the cars purchased in 1963. However, the sides of the cars purchased in 1964 were 7” taller. Thus, while the 1963 cars were 3,209 cubic feet, the 1964 cars were larger at 3,483 cubic feet. The 1964 cars were designated as class HT-13.
