Besides the cars with the prominent "Flour Sugar and Bean Loading Only" placard, I remember we picked out one which said "Silica Sand Only". It was special because it had triangular shaped cleats where the sides and floor met, apparently to keep from losing sand. I hope it's still around the Chama yard somewhere.
