The Car Construction Committee of the American Railroad
Association (ARA) designed a 70 Ton self-clearing hopper car
in 1926. The design was to use as many standards as possible,
and shared many common features with the shorter 50 Ton car.
Between 1926 and 1930, over ten thousand cars were built for
7 different railroads. Many of these lasted into the 1960s, with a
number of cars finding their way to second hand owners.
