On short runs we use three hoppers and on longer runs of more than 5 miles or so we use two hoppers, we actually have 5 EBT hoppers, although only three are currently in service, the other two are awaiting repair. The main reason for the two hoppers is... thats all the Diesel 19 can handle. Diesel 19 will receive new motors and wheels this winter, but for now that is the maximum load Diesel 19 can handle uphill.
