I got pictures of several of the 17XXXX series Covered Hoppers yesterday down
here in South Carolina.

Couple of questions:
 
When would this series been built?
 
I noticed that they are marked "Grain loading only" but they also are displaying
hazard placards? Any idea what they are carrying?
 

>From the modeling side:

 
Are there N-Scale versions of these available?
 
Thanks in adavance...
