Larry, It varies depending on what cars you are looking at. The end reporting marks are different. Some had C.of Ga and some used CG. I have never come across a photo of C. of Ga. used on the sides of a car and I have studied the freight cars extensively.

G. and on the ends they are C. of Ga. Were all the freight cars of the road lettered that way? Do the Microscale decals reflect this lettering?
