This is Walthers 910-6952 36Ft 2B Hopper C&O#123680. WalthersMainline 36' 2-bay offset hopper, ready to run. Chesapeake & Ohio #123680 (black). Used from 1940s through 1970s. Delivered carload shipments of bulk commodities to trackside retailers. The offset-side hopper car had a few advantages over the earlier rib-side type. The crease in the upper sides led to more structural strength without using heavier materials, and there was a greater rated capacity with the side panels riveted to the outside of the ribbing, instead of being on the inside. The efficiency was a boon to the coal merchants! The concept proved successful, and was used to build ever-larger hoppers until after WW II, when rivet pull-through rendered it impractical for modern rotary dumping. Today, although they are seen less frequently, offset-side hoppers remain an important part of railroad history.
