By chance does anyone have any photos of those high top style hoppers that are used in coke service? im looking for the ones Norfolk Souther uses? i think they have "HIGH TOP" on the sides of them to. i saw one once and would like to see a few photos of them . I would like to model a unit coke train of them for my steel mill but an having a hard time finding any photos of them thanks very much for the help.

Todd,
Go to <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.rrpicturearchives.net">http://www.rrpicturearchives.net</a><!-- m --> Go to the NS section, under rolling stock page 238 there are pics of the high tops. The coke cars that I have are mostly GATX cars.
