Re: Ath blue box gon

To add to what others said - that PARTICULAR PM prototype gondola number belonged
to a 52'6" drop end gondola built by Greenville in 1944, i.e. the Proto 2000 gondola.
Someone mentioned the DT&I gondola: a drop-end car, and a straightforward kitbash
from the Proto gondola kit.

An OLD friend heard I was into US prototype trains and decided to give me an Ath blue box 50' gon lettered for Pere Marquette. Is this a car that represents a certain prototype and can be turned into something prototypical by yours truly or is it a candidate for the lower shelves of my closet? I haven't got a clue, hope you can help.
Thanks.
