2-bay covered hopper loads?

[Beachbum]

Aside from frac sand, cement and possibly roofing granules, what do modern 2-bay covered hoppers carry?

Thanks!

Agricultural grains, plastic pellets. Within reason any dry material that will flow out but would need to be kept dry during transport.

How about fertilizer.

Normally grains, pellets, and fertilizer are carried in larger three and four bay covered hoppers, due to their lighter weight. The only thing besides sand, cement and roofing granules that I know of would be salt. Of course anything can be carried if larger hoppers were not available.

Two bay hoppers are designed to carry the heavier materials that can't be carried in larger covered hoppers. So you'll have things like fertilizer, cement, clay, sometimes gravel, salt, bulk sugar etc.
