GATC 4180 ‘HC’ Airslide Covered Hopper
GATC first offered the 4180 cu.ft. airslide covered hopper in 1963. They were designed to transport flour, starch, and sugar, and used their proprietary “airslide” pressurized air system to aerate the hopper bay fabric lining for unloading. There were 6 iterations of the 4180 airslides:
- HAT built 2/1963 – 5/1964
- TZH built 6/1965 – 3/1966
- TZC built the first half of 1966
- TZL built 9/1966 – 1/1969
- HZ built 8/1969 – 1/1970
- HC built 10/1970 – 10/1980
The HC version, manufactured from October 1970 through October 1980, is the last in the series. Spotting features include I-Beam bolster post, square-column side posts, Morton roof walk and end platforms, box horizontal end braces and low brake housing and wheel.
