Abstract: AN UNLOADING LADING FROM THE BOTTOM DISCHARGE OUTLET ON EITHER SIDE OF A COVERED HOPPER RIALWAY CAR. A CONVEYOR STRUCTURE HAVING WHEELS THEREON IS ROLLED BENEATH THE BOTTOM DISCHARGE OUTLET AND OUTWARDLY PROJECTING HORIZONTAL FLANGES ON THE UPPER SURFACE OF THE CONVEYOR STRUCTURE MATCH INTERFITTING INWARDLY PROJECTING FLANGES ON THE BOTTOM OUTLET WHICH EXTEND IN A DIRECTION TRANSVERSELY OF THE CAR. THE FLANGES ON THE CONVEYOR STRUCTURE SLIDE ALONG THE UPPER SURFACES OF THE INTERFITTING FLANGES ON THE BOTTOM OUTLET TO POSITION THE CONVEYOR ACURRATELY WITH RESPECT TO THE OUTLET. RELEASABLE LATCH MEANS RETAINS CONVEYOR IN POSI-

TION BENEATH THE BOTTOM OUTLET. THE CONVEYOR STRUCTURE INCLUDES A HORIZONTAL PORTION DIRECTLY BENEATH THE OUTLET AND AN UPWARDLY INCLINED PORTION INTEGRAL WITH THE HORIZONTAL PORTION. A WHEELED FRAME IS MOUNTED FOR SLIDING MOVEMENT ALONG THE UPWARDLY INCLINED PORTION TO ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE CONVEYOR.

Abstract: Thermostatically controlled apparatus for heating or cooling air circulated through a closed railway car is modified so that in a temperature zone near the thermostat setting, where in prior systems the heating or cooling would be stopped, the circulated air is cooled and heated simultaneously to reduce humidity or remove moisture from the air. The railway car normally transports fresh fruit or vegetables and the moisture content of the fresh produce may be maintained within a specific range as the air being reintroduced within the car has a moisture content.
