Don, did you know SAL 9028 is parked out in the weeds at SERM? Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of it and don't know how accessible it is for photos.
John, do you have a larger format image you could post in the files section? I would like to forward it to the good folks at SERM and maybe plant an idea for a restoration. The car's appearance has not been attended to since it was donated and most of the paint and lettering is weathered away.
Thanks,

Off the top of my pointy little head, the A-1s were 9011-9060 and were built in 1937 by SAL (Jacksonville) from G-6 low-side composite gons.
This would be a neat little modeling project. I'm sure we could find sides that would work, and the ends were 4/5 dreadnaught. Murphy roof. You could splice the decals from Ted Culotta's SAL box car decal set.
Hope this helps! John
