Built in April of 1958, this PS-2 hopper was purchased by Great Northern in an order of 100 cars. The Pullman-Standard all-welded steel, 2,003 cubic-foot two bay covered hopper with ASF Ride Control trucks would become one of the most popular cars of its type with railroads and private industry. It was designed to haul everything from powdered chemicals, to grains, to construction materials such as sand or cement. Versatile and durable, this car continued in revenue service into the early 2000’s, and was sometimes found later in MOW service
