Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Hopper Car?
A hopper car is a type of railroad freight car used to transport loose bulk commodities such as coal, ore, grain, and track ballast. Two main types of hopper car exist: covered hopper cars, which are equipped with a roof, and open hopper cars, which do not have a roof.
What Are Covered Hopper Cars?
Covered hopper cars are used for bulk cargo such as grain, sugar, and fertilizer that must be protected from exposure to the weather.
What Are Open Hopper Cars?
Open hopper cars are used for commodities such as coal, which can suffer exposure with less detrimental effect.
How Can Aldon Help With Opening Hopper Gates And Hatches?
Aldon Company, Inc. has multiple solutions for opening hopper gates and hatches. The Gatemaster series is a compact, simple-to-use manual tool for hard to open hopper gates. We also stock turning bars for sliding gates on covered hopper cars and pry bars for swing or drop doors on open top hopper cars.
