Did Southern Railway Have Any PS Double Door 50' Boxcars?

I have a few Athearn 50' double door PS boxcars (without rib sides) that are undecorated.

I was wondering if Southern had any in the "Gives a green light" scheme, like this body style:

Any help is appreciated.


Hmm... you can send me
help in the form of $100
bills...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

I'm not an expert in boxcars, but this seems close:

That's great! Thanks a million.


Hmm... actually, Kiz means

RRpicturearchives has a good set of photos for SOU 262914, from multiple angles.

It's on display, nice and clean, in Spencer, NC.
