Last time I ran the numbers (2005) there were 125 hoppers, 3 boxcars, 3 flatcars and 3 "other" cars, all EBT. One of the flatcars was MIA at that point and was later reported to be in pieces somewhere to the south, Maryland maybe. 2 of the "other " cars are air side dump cars (one on NG trucks and one on SG trucks) and the third is a SG tank car. The 15 USATC boxcars in the yard were scrapped a few years ago.
