Another car for Tom Mann

This popped up in a train today, and I have to say, it is pretty unusual. I'm assuming Green Mountain scraped away the lettering and logo, leaving an interesting finish, though I could be wrong. In any case, it's an interesting looking car,

if you can't conduct yourself, conduct freight

Alex,

I've seen this car a few times and the other side is very different!! There's a
lot of paint still on it. It is a very odd car!  :D

Looks like a MR Forum weather job.

Awesome.  If you do it right, it would always look wrong!

Not a fire.

Just what a little time and weather will do to a "Crappy" paint job;  using "Crappy" paint!  :o

You should have seen their locomotive paint jobs, in the 1990's.  You could peel that paint like a "zipper!"  ;D
