Damn you Micro-Trains!!! 2 months in a row!!!.. ... Wait.. was the PC cars April or May?

I may have chosen something like this...

.. I recall a similar one where the READING was painted out in a different color and you could still sorta read it as READING.

But... I suppose I couldn't paint my own..

Yeah the PC cars were awesome. I think I could add a Reading or two.

Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

As a Reading modeler, I have no use for these cars and it is killing me.  Maybe you could rerelease them with RDG reporting marks in the future and get more use out of the scheme?

The 50’ billboard-scheme car has been released previously as Reading. I think the initials scheme has been released on one of the 40’ models.

Not unheard of in the weathered releases for the scheme to have previously been released in builders photo version.

Scheme, yes.  Weathered scheme, no.
