Hotness.

You just made my friend Ben's day with those C&I hoppers!

Also, I think I just saw video of a Reading car or two in the CR era.

Ah.. the PRR GLd's are included as well.  So I don't need the undecorateds from the first batch.

Awesome.  Liking the Pennsy hoppers.

How about a Pennsy N8 cabin car?

There were still some in service in 1969. Beyond that?...

Have a photo of a Clinchfield hopper in NS 63, so that's a must.

Well, even though I have so many already, I'm a sucker for a PRR 2-bay hopper.

I really like that Central of Georgia two-bay hopper and think that would look nice in my 1957-era SAL freight train.
