PC: Re: Spotting predecessors

["Bill K." <pontiac@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

last one I saw I have a fuzzy print of, circa 1988 an old double-door 50'
box car in the cigar band scheme to Dewitt.   Same year I caught a Lehigh
car but it had had the reporting marks changed - the NYC was untouched!

I've seen flatcars now and then too, but they don't have a lot of lettering
