JOHNATHAN!

 That rib side Tyco hopper is based on the Pullman Standard 4,740 cubic foot capacity
car, not the PS-2.

Jeff, *any* Pullman-Standard covered hopper is a "PS-2".

But speaking of the Accurail car, yes, it is based on the slightly higher capacity 4750 cuft. design, which is also offered by Intermountain and Tangent in full mind-blowing level of detail.

Rusty, dusty and crusty.This is another TYCO that I just keep puttering with.I paid one dollar for this car brand new in January of 1980.I think I got my dollars worth.I figure I have spent another $10.00 on it since then.I am debating leaving it like this or stripping it and repainting it and decaling it in the new scheme.



If I wanted to splurge on it a PLANO - Athearn Center Flo etched roofwalk would be a fairly easy modification.
