Ore cars

I worked at North Shore Mining and the cars they still use are very similar except the brake wheel is at the standard location (car end). These cars do haul the crude ore and are emptied on a two car rotary dump. I would imagine a rotary dump is used at the mill also. I wish I had kept a record of how many cars I dumped over the years.

God's Best and Happy Rails to You!

The Bachmann iron ore car is also a model of the original Hamersley Iron ore cars, many of which are still in service.
