NS / Sou- would you guys like these? I sure would

[NSdville]

Would any NS/Sou fans like to see these? I looked in many files and have not found these wonderful staples of Southern unit coal service. I found the shorter version of this car in the file section here, but it is not quite the same. Most railroads had the 5 bay version, whereas the Southern used a 4 bay version from what I understand. I remember seeing these guys all the time, WOW. I bet there is alot of NS railheads who would love to see these, including myself. Thank You for your consideration.

I'll take anything in SOU! I remember seeing a lot of these cars in eastern NC earlier in life.

I'm guessing that they're Ortner cars, judging by the graphics on the SOU 390399. Keith and I had talked awhile back about doing a set of these, so from his reply, I guess we are. ;) And here I thought I was all done with NS coal cars! x(

Yes Sir they are, in fact--- 390399 is the 10,000th unit made car.I am not sure how long it stayed blue, but it sure had a fan-fair.
