Re: (erielack) DL&W hoppers

A few did.  These cars were delivered in 1919 and most were gone or converted into covered hoppers by the 1940s when the "Road of..." rectangles started appearing.  The lettering being offered this time is of the most common version in new numbers. Whether the typeface is correct we won't know 'till the cars are out.  Accurail offered perfect lettering on its first run, and a few since have used modern typefaces.  Caveat emptor.

Just wondering - did these cars come with "Road of Anthracite" scribed on them.
