No date.
Note the fellow with the Fuller-Kinyon vacuum in the doorway, sucking out all the cement powder into the tanks in the background. This car was formerly used for lumber loading, stick by stick, as the small door on the right end shows. After being used for cement service, I doubt it was used for anything else.
Note one of the fellows on the right is pointing at the photographer.

A nice little scene you don't see anymore with the high-flow cement hoppers these days.
Nor is it missed.
I wonder how many of those workers died as a result from breathing cement dust. It's a bad as asbestos.
Most every one I've seen has a mask.
