So successful were the Pennsylvania GL hoppers that Pressed Steel Car Co. offered a generic
version to the trade in 1899. It was 18" shorter than the GL and used different door lock
mechanism. Thousands of these cars were sold through 1904 and ran for 40 to 50 years.
Union Pacific ordered 601 cars for its Oregon Short line subsidiary in 1899- 1900. Delivered
before the Harriman takeover, they were lettered in the archaic style and relettered to Harriman
standard before 1906. We offer both styles in the kit. Modernized with safety appliances in the
'teens, they ran well into the 1940's; see kit 2452.
