Abstract:
A covered hopper railcar includes a roof portion and a plurality of side portions coupled to the roof portion. The plurality of side portions and the roof portion at least partially define a longitudinal centerline axis and a transverse centerline axis that is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal centerline axis. The covered hopper railcar also includes a bottom assembly coupled to the side portions. The bottom assembly includes a plurality of bottom side sheets and a trough assembly coupled to the plurality of bottom side sheets. The trough assembly is substantially parallel to and substantially aligned with the longitudinal centerline axis.

Claim (Index 28):
The method in accordance with  claim 28  further comprising:\n coupling the piping manifold assembly to an air source; \n channeling air from the air source past the first portion of the trough assembly to at least partially fluidize the first portion of the solid flowable material proximate to the first portion of the trough; \n inducing a flow of the solid flowable material through a material discharge pipe of the piping manifold assembly; and \n isolating the air source from the first portion of the trough.
