Central Vermont Road Number CV 20018
This 33' panel-side twin bay hopper is painted mineral red with white herald and lettering. It was originally built in June 1912, but was rebuilt into the panel-side hopper in December 1948 and re-built many times after that. It runs on Andrews trucks. Principally used for rebuilding, the raised panel sides featured on this model was originally developed out of a need to provide parts to repair heavily used and rusted hoppers and increase capacity at the same time.
