Abstract: A novel hopper vehicle, illustratively a freight hopper car, has a floor with two longitudinal hoppers and a pair of side-opening doors on opposite sides of the center line of the vehicle. Each door provides a part of one of the hoppers and is pivotally mounted on a side sill of the vehicle. Preferably each door is a wrap-around door to provide also a lower part of a side of the body of the vehicle and its pivotal mounting is on an intermediate side sill that extends between the sloping end walls of the body of the vehicle at an intermediate elevation. The body of the vehicle has fixed side walls. For the central portion of the floor of the car body there is a longitudinally-extending, inverted V-shaped panel that is mounted above the intermediate portion of the center sill of the car and that provides by its sloping walls the other part of the hoppers. In the construction with wrap-around doors the fixed side walls form only a part of the sides of the body.
