Thanks a ton.

I know I've got it. I can check after work tonight. Going from memory, my gut says it was around 1987. But that could be way off.

On behalf of all of us who know we have it and would have spent hours looking for it, thanks for taking care of Joe's request.

From what I understand, some of those cars used to run in and out of the Dow operation in Ludington. The track is a 1/4 mile north of my house. Whatever goes out of that plant now is carried in covered hoppers.
