Looking in my color guide to Reading Company Freight and Passenger Equipment there were up to six covered hoppers built from 1900's-1910's boxcars located in Bloomsburg, PA as of 1990. I don't know where exactly they were but, are they still there?

I live in the Bloomsburg, Pa area and there are no Reading Covered Hoppers in the area currently that I know of. You might be thinking of the three Reading XMph Cocoa Bean Wooden Covered Hoppers that were at the Carroll Park and Western Railroad back in the 1960s and 1970s. All of which have been scarpped along time ago.
