Are these cars pretty accurate or close enough?

The MTL car is a perfect match for PRR class H43, H43a, H43b and H43c hoppers..  The MTL car represented here looks to be a 70 ton H39a.  A 12 panel 70 ton car.  It is five feet shorter and one foot lower.  I will have to pass.  Thanks.

Yup, PRR borrowed N&W's design when these classes of hoppers were built.

Someone should clue MTL in on this.

I have. The artwork is being redone/corrected.

MTL should be aware of this as they have produced a three pack of PRR H43's, a single and a weathered single in the correct yellow ball scheme.  Kudos to Mr. Bussey for passing on the word.  If the artwork is correctly changed, then I will bite.  Thanks.
