Overview:

Built in the 1980s by ACF®, the Coalveyor Bathtub Gondola operated in unit train service to deliver coal to power plants. These cars were most often lettered for the utility companies that leased and purchased them. Many are still in service today. C&D cars were usually run in blocks of 4-12 cars. They were used for construction and demolition debris/refuse hauling.
