OK. I'll bite. I have about 75 photos of these cars from various sources - and in train, yard and builder's shots. NONE have open hatches. "Never" is a strong term and one that I probably should not have used, but I would love to see some of these photos you cite, if for no other reason than to keep me from making a fool of myself on a public forum. :>) Bill SchneiderRapido Trains
Have a look at our website - we list the dates of build and for the specific paint schemes for these cars. We will make as many as distributors, stores and modellers pre order.
To translate Bill's post: SHOW US THE PHOTOS and we'll shut up.
I know, I'm fired. Mike, move over....Bill SchneiderRapido Trains
I think the "Meet the reefer of Conrail" would also work.
"Meat Reefer"" is the name of my Pussycat Dolls cover band.
Has a product announcement thread ever been moved to the Crew Lounge?
Certainly Ed's Law guarantees that a photo exists somewhere, but I can't imagine that the mechanism to keep a hatch open for ice loading would also be robust enough to keep the hatch open while the car is moving.
Tiny, tiny meat...
It would appear that the open-hatch issue has been definitively settled!
