The diagram shown in Fig. 9illustrates the general arrangement and size of the 20 ton ca-pacity cars and explains why they were known as three pothoppers. It is not now known just how many of these carswere built, but the road numbers which they were supposed tocover were from 20,001 to 22,499 for the 13 ton cars and 23,001to 24,099 for the 20 ton cars. It is understood that some ofthem are still in service in the Cumberland district, but most ofthem have been scrapped for many years because of their beingunsuitable for modern service. The first modern steel cars were introduced on the road inFebruary, 1899. The data for the various cars ordered sincethat time is shown above.
