    Does anyone have a break down of the origin of the current BN Covered Hoppers, 445,000-472,500? I know it's a HUGE amount of cars but ANY info is greatly appreciated. I have figured out what cars were FW&D or SLSF based on the patch, now with a BN reporting mark. I know there are alot out there that were GN, NP, CB&Q, Etc. and just got painted over with the BN Green and a new number/reporting mark put on.

    Thanks, Matt

    Matt - I have a lot of that info, but will have to type it into a document and then paste it here. I'll get back and post it later this evening.

    If you need car specific info you can give me the number as I have an 1982 car registry which I refer to almost daily.
