Rapid Discharge Coal Gondolas – Aluminum Rotary (BNSF Delivery)

RTEX Railcar Leasing & Sales has 100 rapid discharge coal gondolas available for lease or sale, designed for efficient unloading in unit train service. These aluminum-bodied rotary dump cars are engineered for high-capacity bulk commodity transportation and are well suited for coal, aggregates, and other heavy bulk materials.

Built by TrinityRail, these cars feature a lightweight aluminum body with steel underframe, allowing for high payload capacity while maintaining durability for demanding bulk service. The cars utilize a rapid discharge door system and rotary couplers, enabling efficient unloading at modern coal and bulk commodity terminals.

With a 119-ton load limit and up to 4,603 cubic feet of capacity, these cars are optimized for unit train operations across the North American rail network.
