About USRA Twin Hoppers:
The United States Railroad Administration (USRA) standardized freight car designs during World War I to improve manufacturing efficiency and interoperability across American railroads. These twin hoppers became workhorses for coal transportation, featuring two separate compartments with bottom discharge doors for efficient unloading at power plants, industrial facilities, and coal yards throughout the Northeast.
