RNDX 163
Title:  RNDX 163
Description:  This experimental fiberglass Centerflow covered hopper was arriving in Lafayette on an Espee local with a load from the Cargill salt mine at Breaux Bridge, Louisiana. This was the first of two such cars built by ACF Industries as a joint-venture with Cargill and the Southern Pacific. Both cars featured a filament-wound fiberglass-reinforced polyester body, and unlike most contemporary freight cars, they were riveted together! GLASSHOPPER was built in January 1981 and had a light weight of 59,200 pounds, while GLASSHOPPER II (RNDX 166) was completed in April 1983 and weighed 5,000 pounds less. Although the GLASSHOPPERS were lighter then all-steel cars, and offered better corrosion resistance for loads such as salt, their higher cost precluded further development. The RNDX reporting mark belonged to ACF, but these two cars were never listed in the OFFICIAL RAILWAY EQUIPMENT REGISTER.

ICG 700565
Title:  ICG 700565
Description:  Ortner built 23 of these tiny (1500 cubic feet) 105-ton covered hoppers for the Illinois Central Gulf in 1979. The cars are only 11 feet 8 inches high, so they are about three feet lower than the Railbox on the next track. Numbered 700550-700572, the cars were built to haul ilmanite ore from the Port of Gulfport about 20 miles to a new DuPont titanium dioxide manufacturing plant at Delisle, Mississippi. The ICG had to build a 13-mile spur from Delisle Jct. -- four miles north of the port -- to the plant, which is at the north end of Bay St. Louis. ICG retained ownership of these cars after this track was sold to MidSouth Rail in 1986, but the 19 existing cars were acquired by the Kansas City Southern after the KCS bought MSRC in 1994. They were repainted brown and became KCS 330000-330016, 330018, and 330019. All 19 were still listed in UMLER at the beginning of 2016.

Titanium dioxide is a white pigment used in plastics, paints, paper, and textile fibers, as a food additive, and in many other materials that require whiteness, brightness and opacity.
