Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad Class HT-5B 189011 presumed at Havelock, Nebraska on April 20, 1945, photograph by the CB&Q Railroad, Chuck Zeiler collection. A characteristic of the hoppers constructed at Havelock was the horizontal seam at mid-point on the sides where the top and bottom plates were riveted together. The following is from the book, CB&Q Color Guide to Freight and Passenger Equipment, by Michael J. Spoor: During 1945, Havelock built its first all steel hoppers, outshopping 650 34 foot 3 inch 55-ton twin hoppers that year. These cars were designated HT-5B and numbered # 189000-189649.
