The first photo shows (from left to right) a Class H21 but the car on the right is a Class GL twin. The hoppers in the second photo are NOT PRR.

In the second photo one can read "P&R" on the second hopper. The first one has an "H" and a "4" below it. It is a twin hopper. Maybe other can read more, but paint looks like it has received a lot of from fires to thaw the loads.

P&R car is either an HTd or HTf (hard to tell from that angle).
Third photo is interesting for the large "COKE" lettering on the H21a, and the N&W HM behind it (which also show up in the first pic). David Thompson |

Hello Steam Era Modelers: I just wanted to point out that the "Coke" version of the H21 hopper car in the third photo can be modeled with a Westerfield Models Kit #3201, which includes two sizes of the "Coke" lettering. Thank you, Andrew Dahm westerfieldmodels@... From: "'Schuyler' schuyler.larrabee@... [STMFC]" <STMFC@...>

Ben, I'm surprised you didn't remind Schuyler that there are no dashes in PRR classes. Surely he should have written "Hsomethings" instead of "H-somethings"
