A little touch of history
Wagons hoppers were used for unloading goods which were carried out from below or from the side. The cargo is then guided through a hopper. Handling could be manual or automatic, depending on the model, with the opening of the hopper controlled by a mechanical or electromechanical system.
Hopper wagons were used for a number of purposes, including:
- Ore transport.
- Ballast transport.
- Transporting salt.
- Transporting cereal grain.
