These cars were built during 1968 by BSC at Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The flush deck has rub rails slightly inboard of the edge and
these cars were configured for saddle-back truck loading. The sill is straight and there is a “clam shell” jack pad welded to the side sill
at the bolsters. These cushioned cars ride on 70-ton trucks and were originally delivered to the GTW 303600-303772 series and
transferred to the current CNA series in 1974.

These cars were built during 1973 by HST at Trenton, Nova Scotia. There are 15 welded side posts (16 smooth panels) that are beveled
at the bottom. The ends are corrugated, with five channels welded to a panel, extending beyond the side sheet ends. The side sill is
straight with the side sheets welded to it and there are roping plates welded to the lower edge side sill just outboard of the bolster. There
are two grabs at the left end, and a ladder with four rungs at the right and on the ends, there is a four rung ladder to the left edge. These
cars were built for the 137350-137549 series and ride on 100-ton trucks. 33 cars have been modified for coil steel service by adding
trough racks and fiberglass covers.

These cars were built between 1970 by MIL at Sorel, Quebec. There are 17 side posts, with the odd numbered posts tied into the major
floor joists and the even numbered posts are smaller and end at the bottom of the side sheets. The roping plate on these cars is a
rectangular plate that fits between the upper and lower plates of the bolster and there is a hole centered in the face. There are three
horizontal ribs on the ends, lengths of channel welded to a steel plate with plates welded to the ends. The A-end has a rotary
coupler and the cars ride on 100-ton trucks. These cars were built originally for the current CN series.

CN 199060 was built by MIL at Sorel, Quebec in 1970 and it’s at Kinder Morgan’s Vancouver Wharves in sulfur service in North
Vancouver, British Columbia during December 2007. It’s equipped with a Universal hand brake, Gould 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks with 36”
wheels and a rotary coupler on the A-end. The capacity is 4000 cubic feet, the load limit is 228,000; the light weight is 58,000 and it was
weighed 1/70 NEW.

These cars were built during 1974 by NSC at Hamilton, Ontario. There are four round roof hatches, running boards on either side of the
hatches with 18 supports (double supports at the running board panel joints), an arched roof, and 11 welded side panels. The end slope
sheets are vertical and there is a brake reservoir mounted horizontally on the B-end end sheet between the “V” brace. These cars have
body mounted brake cylinders (mounted to the shear plate), so at both ends of the car, on the left side, brake levers extend out through
a slot on the side sill and they are connected to each other with a brake rod (with a slack adjustor at the B-end). The side sill is straight
and rolls out slightly along the upper edge and ends vertically at the car ends. The jack pad/roping plates are rectangular with a vertical
face and extend out beyond the side sill at the bolsters. There are four gravity outlet gates and the cars ride on 100-ton trucks. These cars
were built for the CNIS 368000-368999 series and were transferred to this CNLX (CN Treasury Operations Ltd.) series during 1994.

These open hoppers were built during 1967 by HST at Trenton, Nova Scotia. There are 17 side posts, and the side sill is straight with
roping holes located near the outboard vertical corner posts. There are four outlet gates on either side of the center sill and the pairs of
doors are connected with a length of steel channel so that both doors open at the same time. These cars ride on 100-ton trucks and were
originally delivered to the current CN series.
