ABSTRACT:
Cars of a multi-car train are loaded while in transit utilizing an overhead loading hopper into which a load out conveyor delivers bulk material such as coal in quantums to fully and evenly fill the individual receiving cars as each passes beneath the hopper and each quantum of material delivered to the hopper is specially measured to equal the predetermined gross loaded weight of the car in loading position less the car's actual weight as it was measured in transit. Loading of each car from the hopper is regulated by the speed of the conveyor and by an operator controlled diverter gate which initially directs the coal through an aft chute of the hopper which each car reaches first and then through a fore chute to complete its loading.
