RE: (erielack) Drew & Co. Tank Cars



Rusty,

	Is the car I scanned and  put up on the Photo Page?

	Apparently, Drew leased two different batches of these cars from
Shippers' Car Line (SHPX)... One batch had the two-tone scheme (I'm assuming
this was white top, black bottom), and the other batch was solid black with
silver lettering (see the big ACF book for a photo of this car)

	I believe that Sunshine Models make the correct car in HO scale, and
I wanted to do a decal set, but I haven't found a photo that shows the
smaller lettering clearly enough. Can anyone help?

	- Paul
