Although this car is similar in basic design to ACF's center flow dry bulk commodities car, this new car uses low-pressure air (5 psi versus 15 psi of previous models) to discharge its cargo into local delivery trucks or into a plant storage system. This low pressure differential car is lighter in weight and can belter accommodate a greater variety of bulk commodities such as flour and dry chemicals. Materials can be discharged by vacuum and gravity as well as by pressure [9]. A new composite steel and aluminum triple-hopper covered hopper car has been designed by Magor Railcar Division of Fruehauf Corporation (Fig. 13). The principle used in develop- ing this design has been to have an aluminum container mechani- cally fastened to a steel underframe. Additionally, the interior of the car has been improved by curving intersecting surfaces to prevent lading retention in corners and valleys.

  • Mather Refrigerator Instructions
    HO Scale MATHER MEAT REFRIGERATOR CAR HISTORY - by Mr, Richard Hendrickson The Mather Stock Car Company of Chicago was founded early in the twentieth century by Alonzo C. Mather. As the company's name indicates, its primary business was the leasing of stock cars, which many railroads preferred to lease rather than buy because the stock business was highly seasonal. Mather branched out into leasing refrigerator cars in the 1920's. however, and beginning in the 1930's the company did a brisk business in box cars as well. The Mather fleet even included a few tank cars. Mather leased cars to railroads and shippers in many parts of the country and was modestly successful throughout the 1920's. However, it was during the severe depression following the 1929 stock market crash that the Mather company prospered. With most new railroads in financial distress and many in receivership, there was no capital with which to purchase new freight cars, yet serviceable cars were often urgently needed. Leasing provided a viable alternative, as leased freight cars could be paid for a little at a time out of current revenue. Mather's Chicago Ridge shops therefore worked overtime building and rebuilding cars in the early 1930's, at a time when other car builders were largely idle for lack of orders. Though Mather remained a relatively small company, it contained its profitable leasing business until, in the late 1950's, it was acquired by the North American Car Corporation. Mather's 37' Refrigerator Cars Among the cars in the Mather leasing fleet were several hundred 37' meat refrigerator cars which had been converted from stock cars.

  • The History of Transportation at Colgate University: an Analysis Of
    The History of Transportation at Colgate University: An Analysis of the Environmental, Economic, and Social Impacts By Marisa Chiodo, Kathryn Deaton, and Jonathan Morales Colgate University i Executive Summary This report looks at how students, faculty, administrators, and staff from Colgate University have traveled to and from campus and around campus over the last two hundred years. With this data, we consider how transportation practices have been sustainable considering the environmental, social, and economic pillars. We operationalized sustainability by looking at fuel emissions and landscape changes for the environmental pillar, money expenditures, feasibility, and affordability for the economic pillar, and accessibility, time efficiency, and passenger health for the social pillar. We focused on four modes of transportation from the early 1800s to the late 1900s. These include stage lines on country roads and turnpikes, packet boats on the Chenango Canal, railroads, and automobiles. Stage lines on country roads and turnpikes were the primary mode of transportation in the early 1800s when traveling around Hamilton, but the region first really began to change with the introduction of the Chenango Canal. While the Chenango Canal was ultimately a financial failure for New York State, it moved the Chenango Valley away from subsistence agriculture to a commercial economy. The Canal influenced Colgate by bringing students in from farther states, and had a small impact in increasing the student population. The Chenango Canal was abandoned because railroads provided a much more attractive alternative as a faster, more economically feasible transportation mode. In the mid-19th century, the first railroad was built through Hamilton, to be followed by two more in the upcoming years.

  • Chapter 14 Yards and Terminals1
    CHAPTER 14 YARDS AND TERMINALS1 FOREWORD This chapter deals with the engineering and economic problems of location, design, construction and operation of yards and terminals used in railway service. Such problems are substantially the same whether railway's ownership and use is to be individual or joint. The location and arrangement of the yard or terminal as a whole should permit the most convenient and economical access to it of the tributary lines of railway, and the location, design and capacity of the several facilities or components within said yard or terminal should be such as to handle the tributary traffic expeditiously and economically and to serve the public and customer conveniently. In the design of new yards and terminals, the retention of existing railway routes and facilities may seem desirable from the standpoint of initial expenditure or first cost, but may prove to be extravagant from the standpoint of operating costs and efficiency. A true economic balance should be achieved, keeping in mind possible future trends and changes in traffic criteria, as to volume, intensity, direction and character. Although this chapter contemplates the establishment of entirely new facilities, the recommendations therein will apply equally in the rearrangement, modernization, enlargement or consolidation of existing yards and terminals and related facilities. Part 1, Generalities through Part 4, Specialized Freight Terminals include specific and detailed recommendations relative to the handling of freight, regardless of the type of commodity or merchandise, at the originating, intermediate and destination points. Part 5, Locomotive Facilities and Part 6, Passenger Facilities relate to locomotive and passenger facilities, respectively.
