Overview
Conceived
in the early 1950s, the Airslide® covered hopper design
was developed for dry bulk ladings such as flour, starch,
sugar and plastics. Prior to the late 1940s, such ladings
would have been packaged and shipped in boxcars, even for
car load shipments. This added extra labor and time to
package, load the containers in the boxcar, unload, and
remove the lading from the shipment containers. Beginning
in the late 1940s, covered hoppers greatly simplified the
process by allowing the bulk material to be loaded in through
roof hatches, and dumped out of the hopper bays.
However, dry, powdery commodities such as flour, starch,
sugar and plastic granules do not always “flow” easily
from a standard hopper bay; they have a tendency to compact
and “cake up” in the bay, impeding the unloading process. To solve this problem, the Fuller Company of Catasauqua,
PA patented the Airslide® concept. In an Airslide® covered
hopper, the bays are formed into two narrow, steep-sided
troughs with a layer of an air-permeable fabric material
at the bottom. Air is pumped through the material, causing
the lading to fluidize and flow easily through the hopper
outlets, the air allowing the lading to more easily “slide” out
of the car.
Airslide® covered hoppers were built by General American
Transportation (GATC), with production commencing in 1953. Originally, there were two configurations - a single-bay,
2,600 cubic foot car, and a two-bay, 3,660 cubic foot car.
Both were available with gravity or pneumatic outlets. In
later years, as freight car sizes increased, several railroads
and private owners had pairs of their single-bay cars joined
together with a drawbar, in order to create a larger-capacity
car.
The all-new Athearn model is of a single-bay, 2,600 cubic
foot car. This initial release is of what is typically referred
to as an “early” version Airslide®, the prototype
having been built from 1955 to 1965, before major design
changes were implemented. Airslide® hoppers proved to
be extremely popular cars, selling to numerous railroads
throughout the country, as well as private owners. They could
be found in the paint schemes of nearly all the major roads,
with many seeing additional schemes throughout the years
as the result of sales and mergers. They were also leased
to many other railroads and private companies by GATC; painted
for the lessee, but carrying GACX reporting marks. Operationally,
they could be found serving flour mills, sugar refineries,
bakeries, and plastic plants, among other industries.

Item Description |
|
Stock Checks:
Inventory is a fluid commodity. It changes by the
hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure
we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each
year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order
in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm
that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order
it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson.
When we held items for customers’ orders, the order
never materialized 80%+ of the time. We lost out on
the orders placed while the item was on hold. Also
we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual
orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact
that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not
mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms
pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items
are available and if possible attempt to locate what we
don’t have while you are on the phone. |
