In October's Model Railroader, there appears an article on early 20th 
century steel hoppers.  While the HO models shown are ribbed, I wonder 
about Gilbert's two bay hoppers. They appear to be somewhat offset in 
design. I perused several on line prototype lists, but didn't find 
information. Sorry, if I just missed an entry, but what was the closest 
prototype for this car? Perhaps as others have probably done, it would 
make some nice starting material for a scale conversion. I have not as 
yet researched old Herald or Gaugian articles for examples.
 
Thanks in advance, Gene Cimino
