- Dumper 31: is a twin rotary, capable of unloading at the rate of 6,500 tonnes per hour.
- Dumper 32: is a single rotary with an unloading rate of 4,000 tonnes per hour.
Each can handle both the traditional Canadian steel coal cars ( 58 feet 6 inches ) and the U.S.-style
aluminum coal cars ( 53 feet 1 inch ).
