i was thinking of bathtub gondola car. i know there a gondola car but one i'm referring to is sultran or procor or cp rail one. http://cprailmmsub.blogspot.ca/2011/01/ ... teoli.html. you don't have to have company logo or nothing. have it unmarked. it might go great with sd90mac. have both coal and sulphur in it.

I have to agree, looking forward to the release of these! Matter of fact, I just saw a string of those hoppers pulling into the NS yard today near my house except they were in a "ballast" gray scheme. Looked like fairly new cars or newly repainted.
