These unusual cars are often used to transport waste and sludge,
in specially constructed 20' containers
They are found in many States of the US
Containers are often loaded two per axle, in an unusual 2-1-1-2 lading.

There is an article on these cars by M R Snell in the July 2012 edition
of Railroad Model Constructor page 62.

Previously, decals for these cars were produced by

Decals, with many known paint schemes from across the USA
are now available from N Scale Kits and included with the cars.

Containers for these cars are available from Fine N Scale and from N Scale Kits
