I finally got my own LS&W hoppers finished (almost) too, and it looks like Hoffentoth Bros. are taking advantages of summer prices on Anthracite to stock-up. Here's a cut of cars at Lowbanks, almost ready to head east:

Before leaving, one of the train's locos grabs a hopper to be spotted at Hoffentoth's Lowbanks yard:

The weathering on these cars is a little more evident in person than is apparent in the photos:

The hoppers are kits from Accurail, and totally "stock" except for the lettering and couplers.
