I go back to my original math - it's a 52' inside length gondola!

Craig jumped the gun a bit on this one.

The 5660 PD covered hopper will be nice to have, but now we need a trailer to go with it!   :D

Maybe Pat can tool one up for us.

I'm a sucker for generic grey hoppers (and black tankers), so I'll be in for several.   Craig's last two releases suit me just fine.

Given that the trucks are 100-ton, and have wheelbase of 5'9", I'm going to estimate that the car is a 50-footer.

Well, I sure got the length wrong, as these cars are 66'.

Wow!!!

Hey I think at one point I guessed the length as 65!!!

I was just thinking about these the other day - quite common and very welcome....

I'm in for all of the TILX and CITX ones. They will fill the vacancy I have at my flour mill. Nicely done Craig!
