Product Information:

Unlike most bulk loads, wood chips are so light that a huge quantity can be carried in a rail car. Specialized wood chip loaders insure the car is filled to capacity. Most loaders are just a simple elevated platform that supports a pipe coming from the wood chipper and a large box-like device that directs the flow of chips into the car. In turn, the box has a large lid, or plenum, that allows the car to be filled over the top so more chips can be carried.
 
Chip loaders are built close to the mill, in an area with clearance for a siding. As mills grew, it was easier to add loaders rather than build larger ones, so a modern mill may have five or six.
