Dump car 0518 was built in 1927 by the Differential Car Co. in Finley, Ohio for the Cleveland Railway Co. After the end of street operation the car was acquired by the Shaker Rapid where it remained until the late 1970’s. It was acquired by NORM in 1979.

Flat cars 0610, 0611 and 0615 were built in 1928 by Differential for CRC. These flats were normally paired with one of the street railway cranes. The flats were acquired by Shaker in the early 1950’s and retired in the early 1980’s. They were acquired by NORM in 1981.
