    What are the hoppers for? Expo ’86 paint scheme?

    Looks like Heritage Fund. Train was probably sponsored by the Alberta Gov’t

    Dave: Yes
    Jacob: When Fed’s bought grain hoppers as a subsidy under Crow Rates, both Sask. and Alta. bought hoppers also. As this was a Govt of AB sponsored run they put together a train of export wheat entirely of Alberta owned hoppers
