Notes:

This car was one of the 1984 NASG "Special Projects" cars. It was the first time a model railroading organization had successfully imported a brass model. This is a phase III model, signified by the fully enclosed center section between the two hoppers.

Bill Winans decorated his model for his layout's private road name.
