I've heard of "gut cars", also latrine cars haulng sewage back in the good old steam train days. I saw in a magazine grain being hauled in open hoppers in the US in the '70's due to car shortage. Coal used to be hauled in box cars, just pile the coal up inside. I may have heard of oranges being hauled in covered hoppers.
