Good to know Bill. I'm currently building six of these cars in WP livery. Missing one 7' youngstown door though. Any chance Atlas might have these for sale as spares? If not I'd have to use a Kadee

Johannes,
Regarding the Monon car, this is the first series of cars delivered in this scheme that i can find. The Monon also had a similar series of hoppers delivered in 1940 numbered 41500-41699.
