Perhaps I should amend my answer a little. "Roll" is probably not the right description of what the unloader does. It tips the car to the side enough to get the grain to run to the side of the car that has the door open; but it does not roll the car over, like a rotary dumper for coal. gary roe quincy, illinois

On the page reached through Bob's second link, the fifth photo from the bottom, "Staley grain car dumper 1951", caught my attention. How does the grain get out of the rebuilt WABASH boxcar? Does that device roll the car as well as tilt it? -- Steve Hoxie Pensacola FL
