Morning y'all,
I am trying to figure out a suitable number for a PRR G26 (65'6") mill gon with National B1 trucks. I know the number of at least one G26a car that rode on B1 trucks, but I'm having a hard time finding an original G26. I ask as the last thing I need to do to my HO ECW G26 is number it (after adding all wire grabs, visible brake rigging...the invisible stuff was replaced with lead, and I still can't get the car close to a decent weight...lowering the car, adding LL B1 trucks).

Ted,
Wow! Thanks!!! Now the cursing under my breath is the fact that the location of the lettering is different from the G26 on Rob S' site http://prr.railfan.net/photos/PRR_439048_G26_34view.jpg - note the repack stencil blt date and class are all shifted right one panel on car 440687.
