covered hopper

listen to the pronunciation of covered hopper
الإنجليزية - الإنجليزية
A covered hopper is a railroad freight car. Structurally, it is very similar to an open-top hopper car in that the carbody consists of a large hopper with unloading chutes at the bottom. What distinguishes this type of car from an open hopper is not only the car's roof, but also the car's overall size. Covered hoppers typically carry loads of less dense, and therefore lighter, materials, so they are built to a higher cubic capacity than open top hoppers. They are used predominantly to haul various grains such as corn, wheat and barley
