Trainworx has these in Southern colors.  One black with white lettering, the other red with white lettering.  Would like to know the dates when these paint schemes were used.

Here's the road numbers...

http://www.train-worx.com/quad.southern.list.htm

The numbers for the black cars are all Greeneville cars... which as built looked like this:


After the NS merger, these cars were resided by Johnstown in the mid 80's and repainted into the then current black Claytor scheme ad later the NS scheme.

Here's a pic of 77806


Here's a pic of the 78351






The red cars are all 79xxx's, which are four-bay Ortners (take the PM now Red Caboose five-bay Ortner and remove the middle bay)

Here's a pic of 79552:


Better shot of a car in the same series...
