Good try, Jon, but you'll have to do better than that.
You just found a prototype photo of when they moved the world's largest pipe (St. Claude, Manitoba has one of them) into position by rail. 
All kidding aside, your modelling is amazing. I hope you will be able to share more tutorials of how you've accomplished this great work.

I agree....Superb work...
There are more than a few shots where the only "tell-tale" sign are the couplers....

One more newly weathered covered hopper (Horslips - Exiles) and a couple of new photos showing older cars.
