You all probably have known about this for ages, but nobody told me.  Found it today while trying to find photo of a CNW mail baggage.

Lots of great photos on that site.  Looks like they've added some since my last visit.

Make sure you try the search function as there are a lot of photos mixed into folders you might not expect.

Its sad to me because most of these people are long gone friends. I miss them

@wcfn100 I hadn't seen this CGW hopper before, and it's tucked away in the CRI&P Mech Engineering files from Philip Weibler:

Ha, that's actually why I posted about the search.  I had found the same car.

I think this is the same hopper that's in a couple of the Car Builders Cyclopedias.
