Re: COSX tank car mystery
Many oil companies reserved the silver schemes for local dealer delivery. It’s possible that CONX did so too.

Michael and Group;
One of the coolest gons of all time was the G25 “Screw Car(s)”.
PRR didn’t much like their USRA cars, and they had wooden floors, and interior folding stake pockets,

Re: CB&Q Hoppers from Athearn Two-Bay Ribbed Hopper
I’d certainly like a pair. Will they be made with cast on grabs or will the modeler have to install wire grabs. I’m for the latter.

Re: CB&Q Hoppers from Athearn Two-Bay Ribbed Hopper
Buy some Burlington hoppers? Yes, definitely...but NOT after I spend 40 hours rebuilding a couple of old BB dogs.
I haven't studied the rosters yet but Burlington had around 4,000 of these cars.

COSX tank car mystery
Hey gang,
I'm revisiting my research on a particular block of D-X (C.O.S.X) tank cars. The cars appear in the attached W. Middleton photo that was poorly reproduced in the CERA "Iowa Trolleys" book.

Group;
Once I figured out what the end details should look like, the Westerfield resin details went on OK, including the cut levers. You could try that source.
Keep in mind the pivoting
