SMW 850957
Title:  SMW 850957
Description:  Another new one for me - Covered hopper is part of the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool roster. In 1996, Nova Sbotia's Trenton Works built two lots of 5250 cubic-foot covered hoppers for grain service. Both lots had large Saskatchewan Wheat Pool logos. Sask Pool did not own these cars. Though other Canadian grain-handling companies had leased hoppers before, this was the first time such cars were emblazoned with a corporate logo.
